Newnes Junction is a closed railway station on the Blue Mountains Line, New South Wales, Australia. It opened in 1910 and served the former private branch line to Newnes. The station closed to passenger services in 1975, although still physically exists and is occasionally used for coal trains visiting the nearby Clarence Colliery.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Newnes Junction station )〕 The station consists of an island 'Up' platform, and a single side 'Down' platform. == History ==
The station replaced an earlier station (also called "Newnes Junction') which operated from 1906 to 1910. This station was located at the junction of the Dargans Creek Deviation and Newnes railway line (or Wolgan Valley Railway) which is situated about 200 metres northwest of the current Newnes Junction Station. The Wolgan Valley Railway closed in 1932 and for years the station had no use at all until the construction of the loop line that served the Clarence Colliery in the 1970s. In 1957 electrification crossed the Blue Mountains and the sidings and colliery loop were electrified. In 2006 the overhead catenary was decommissioned and was removed from the colliery balloon loop. The Zig Zag Railway have plans to extend their railway to Newnes Junction via the Dargans Deviation and using platform 1 or the old 'up loop' platform road.
