Tarana Quarry railway station was a regional railway station located on the Main Western line, serving the nearby quarries within the Central West town of Tarana. History. The station opened in 1890 as Tarana Quarry School Platform and was renamed Quarries in June 1905. It was once again renamed Tarana Quarry on 24 October 1909 and remained so until it was closed on 24 August 1974. The station had a subsidiary lever frame that was released by track circuit to allow the siding to be shunted from either direction, as the station was too close to Tarana station to divide the section equally. During 1916, automatic signals were added to Tarana Quarry due to the station's proximity to Gemalla Loop. Today, there are no traces of any railway infrastructure near the location of the former station, the area now incorporated into the Eusdale Nature Reserve.
