The First school was opened in 1852.

Grafton was declared a city in the Mid 1880's

In 1932 a Road Rail bridge was opened over the Clarence River.

Some important history,

Rail services between Coffs Harbour and South Grafton did not start until 1922.

Rail services between Glenreagh and South Grafton started in October 1915, so it was around 7 years before a Train was available to travel from Sydney to South Grafton.

Train travel from South Grafton to the State border did not happen till 1932.






That's it, this Station story is complete.
I hope you enjoy my creation.

As I have enjoyed creating it.

HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY EVERYBODY.
