==History==
Albury is located in a rural farming district, and for over six years in the 19th century served as the temporary terminus of the branch railway line that would become the Fairlie Branch. The line was opened on 1 January 1877 and an extension beyond the town to Winscombe opened on 24 August 1883.〔''New Zealand Railway and Tramway Atlas'', fourth edition, edited by John Yonge (Essex: Quail Map Company, 1993), 24.〕〔New Zealand Railways Department, ''Geographical Mileage Table'' (New Zealand Railways Department: Place of publication within New Zealand unknown, 1957), 19.〕 Although the Fairlie Branch closed on 2 March 1968, some formation from the line can still be seen around Albury.〔David Leitch and Brian Scott, ''Exploring New Zealand's Ghost Railways'', revised edition (Wellington: Grantham House, 1998 ()), 79-80.〕 Albury is thought to have been named by the Kennaway brothers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nzhistory.net.nz/keyword/albury )〕
