History

While the Great Western Railway was built through Warrimoo in 1867, it did not see a platform built until 1918. This platform was later destroyed as a result of bush fire in 1951 and was later rebuilt.[3]

A pedestrian bridge was built in 1917 to provide access to the station and in 1990 alterations were made.[3]

The station celebrated its 100th Anniversary on 9 March 2018.[4]
