Over the past months volunteers and paid staff have been working hard to complete Bullarto Station with the installation of an 1890s square water tank and the picket fencing on the Lyonville end of the platform including the garden bed.

This is part of the railways contribution to the Tiny Towns round 2 funding received from Regional Development Victoria https://www.rdv.vic.gov.au/grants/tiny-towns-fund
to complete the fit out of the station building.
