The railway to Walhalla finally opened in 1910. It was however too late as the major mines had already begun to slow production and would shortly close. The station building in the photo was removed in the early 1930s and is now the Hartwell station on the Alamein Line of the Melbourne's suburban rail network. The current station in Walhalla is a replica of this building that was built using the original Victorian Railway's plan by Yallourn TAFE students.
