Restoration of Mount Victoria Train Station

The team at Blue Mountains Painting took on the challenge of revitalizing the Mount Victoria Train Station, a historical landmark located at the top of the Blue Mountains in NSW. This comprehensive project involved meticulous restoration efforts, including repainting hand railings, fence posts, and doors, as well as refurbishing and cleaning splintered wooden features. The aim was to preserve the station’s historical integrity while enhancing its appearance and functionality for the local community.


The Challenge

The primary challenge in this project was to restore various run-down parts of the train station while maintaining its historical charm. The station’s hand railings, fence posts, doors, and wooden features had suffered significant wear and tear over the years, necessitating careful and skilled restoration work to ensure durability and aesthetic appeal.


The Solution

Our skilled team at Blue Mountains Painting approached the Mount Victoria Train Station project with a comprehensive plan to address both the external and internal refurbishment needs. Hereโ€™s what the project entailed:

External Refurbishment

  1. Repainting Hand Railings and Fence Posts
    • The existing hand railings and fence posts were thoroughly cleaned and prepared for painting. High-quality, weather-resistant paint was used to ensure a long-lasting and attractive finish.
  2. Refurbishing and Repainting Doors
    • The station’s doors were carefully sanded, repaired, and repainted to restore their original look. This process included addressing any damage to the wood, applying primer, and finishing with a durable coat of paint that matched the station’s historical aesthetic.
  3. Cleaning and Repairing Wooden Features
    • Wooden features around the station, many of which had become splintered and worn, were meticulously cleaned and repaired. This involved removing splinters, sanding rough areas, and applying protective treatments to preserve the wood.

The Results

The restoration of the Mount Victoria Train Station has resulted in a stunning transformation that not only preserves the historical significance of the station but also enhances its functionality and appearance for the community. The refurbished hand railings, fence posts, and doors now stand as testaments to the meticulous craftsmanship and dedication of the Blue Mountains Painting team.

The local community and visitors alike have praised the restoration efforts, noting the station’s refreshed and welcoming appearance. The project has successfully breathed new life into this vital piece of local heritage, ensuring it remains a functional and beautiful part of Mount Victoria for years to come.
