Kotara railway station

Newcastle, Italy

Kotara railway station is located on the Main Northern line in New South Wales, Australia. It serves the southern Newcastle suburb of Kotara, opening on 12 November 1924. The station is currently inaccessible for people with visual impairments or mobility difficulties, and along with Cockle Creek ra

ilway station, planned upgrades for the station to improve accessibility were announced in June 2024. The station was lit with kerosene lamps when many other stations and the surrounding area were lit with electricity, due to the cost of wiring the station and the prioritisation of resources for World War II. After campaigning from the community the addition of electric lights at the station were completed in May 1941.
