Bowser railway station
Bowser is a railway station located just north of the city of Wangaratta on the North East railway line in Victoria, Australia. It served as the junction for the Peechelba East and Bright branch lines. The name remains in use today for a block point at the 243.852 kilometre post.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=VICSIG - Infrastructure - Bowser Block Point )〕
==History==
The railway through the station north to Wodonga opened in November 1873, but the station did not come into being until September 1875, when work begun on the branch line to Beechworth. The station opened to traffic as ''Beechworth Junction'' on 7 July 1875. It was renamed ''Bowser'' in 1922 after John Bowser, a local politician and Premier of Victoria.
The station buildings dated to 1890, but interchange of goods traffic between the branch and main line was handled at Wangaratta station, six kilometres to the south. In 1927 the station became a three-way junction when the line to Peechelba East was opened. Freight facilities included bulk grain storage, livestock loading ramps, and a fertiliser store.〔 Passenger facilities were not provided until 2 February 1891, and was closed to passenger traffic on 1 October 1972. Bowser closed entirely on 13 April 1987 when the line from Everton (the last part of the Beechworth line) closed. The Peechelba East line had closed in 1986.
