- The railway arrived in Seymour n 1872 and the town quickly developed into what is often described as Victora's first "railway town".

- A railway station, locomotive sheds, workshops and administrative offices were built and in time population of the town increased as large numbers of employees such as drivers, firemen, shunters, guards, track and loco repairmen, and administrative staff came to live in Seymour.

- This booklet was written as a tribute to all of Seymour's railwaymen and women and their families and to recognise the huge impact that the railways have had on the development and history of Seymour.
