The Timboon railway line is a closed railway line, in Victoria, Australia, which branched from the Port Fairy line, near Camperdown, and served the towns of Cobden and Timboon, along with the farming communities of the area. The first sod was turned on 14 February 1889 by John Walls of Camperdown who stated that the Railway league had been lobbying for 22 years for rail into the district. The contractors, Messrs. Buscombe, Chappel & Bell took three years to complete the line. The 1916 Government Railways Standing Committee rejected the submission to extend the line to Port Campbell
