Earlier this month Loco Shed Echuca invited a wide cross-section of community organisations, business groups and local Indigenous community members to a presentation detailing our ongoing restoration and development plan. The objective - to preserve and transform the Loco Shed into a sustainable community asset, including a museum, café and function space.

Incorporating a state-of-the-art sound and light exhibition by LASERVISION is envisioned to captivate and educate visitors about the steam era’s profound impact on local industry and culture.

Please note:
It is imperative that if you choose to see the train from a passenger platform, ensure you remain behind the yellow line at all times and if viewing the train line-side, ensure you do not enter the railway corridor or trespass at any time and remain well clear from the edge of any railway track. This includes railway sidings, yards (used & disused) and the main lines where trains pass by. We thank you for your co-operation.

We are disappointed to share that Loco Shed Echuca was broken into across the weekend, with significant damage to the exterior fencing, heritage doorway & surrounding brickwork.

The building is undergoing significant renovations to become a multi-purpose community space - and issues like this are completely avoidable.

The Loco Shed project is driven by volunteers and funded through fundraising, donations and grants. As a community organisation this is another setback and significant cost.

We understand there is interest in the building, it's an amazing piece of Echuca's vibrant history. The building is open to the public several times a year through the refurbishment, with the next being June 5th alongside the arrival of Steamrail Victoria's Steam Train shuttles.

CCTV is being pulled from the Railway Station & Loco Shed - but we urge anyone with information regarding the break-in to contact First Constable Collins at Echuca Police on 5483 1500.

Some comparison shots showing the exterior works undertaken at Loco Shed Echuca - and boy does it make a difference 🤩

These works were funded by the Victorian Government's 'Living Heritage Grants', which have enabled refurbishment of the Loco Shed to continue. This includes external and rooftop drainage, weather sealing, painting & more.

The windows are complete 😀 All exterior and rooftop windows on the Loco Shed have now been fixed, sealed or replaced. In addition to the new drainage, roof repairs and painting - the exterior is coming together.

What you may not have noticed, is each end of Loco Shed Echuca features a 9 panel porthole window, partially embedded into the brickwork. Over time these had been damaged beyond repair.

Echuca local Brendan Kelly Design has handcrafted these replica windows to fit - and has done an amazing job 👏
