Amery, Western Australia


Amery is a rail siding and townsite northeast of Dowerin in the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia.

Railway

It was an important junction of the 'Enjanding Northward railway, going north to Kalannie and the line going east to Wyalkatchem.
Amery was first known as "Ejanding" in 1910. Its name was changed to Amery in 1928, apparently because another railway siding approximately further north was to be named Ejanding.

Newspaper

A newspaper that included the name of Amery was the Dowerin guardian and Amery line advocate, which was published between 1927 and 1958.
