Muckleford Station & Yard
Goods Shed
Originally the Goodshed at Winchelsea on the Geelong-Warrnambool Line, the building had been removed to the Geelong Campus of the Deakin University. In 2002 the building was offered by the Deakin University to the VGR. The University covered the cost of transport and placement in its present location. A community grant from the Bendigo Bank has seen electricty supply connected, repairs to external cladding, sheet flooring, provision of stairs to front and rear, internal fittings and purchase of tables and chairs. Funding was also sufficient to cover the cost of external painting and provision of a tank and stand. Contractors and Work-for-the-Dole workers have been involved in this project.
Plans for use of the shed include functions, parties, an adjunct to train charters, corporate events as well as VGR training and social activities.
