History
The railway reached Mooliabeenie (presumably) soon after it reached Gingin in April 1891. A Station Master's house was built, which also served as a Post Office. Local settlers were employed on the railway and at the Station. The Ward family lived in a house to the west of the Station. After their departure during WW1, the house was used as a Shop and residence by Mr. W. Leaman. This was destroyed by fire in March 1922. Mr. J. O'Hare built a new house close to the Siding, which was still in operation c 1940. Yet another Store was built by Mr. Bill Read in 1946 when Mrs. Read resumed duties at the Railway Station and Post Office.
