The following was reported in the Herald newspaper on 17th April 1919. A stock train travelling north crashed head-on with a goods train coming in the opposite direction. The driver thought he had been given the all-clear to proceed into Sunbury and it was only when the train was approaching the Macedon Street bridge that he saw the red light and it was too late. The accident caused damage to rolling stock and disruption on the Bendigo and Maryborough lines. The train coming from Bendigo smashed onto the platform at Sunbury. The driver of the stock train was thrown under the van and suffered a broken arm and facial injuries. The fireman was thrown clear of the tracks. A local Sunbury doctor treated them before they were taken by a casualty train to hospital. A crew from Melbourne came to Sunbury to repair the damage. The track was cleared by that afternoon.This was one of a number of train crashes that have occurred in the Sunbury line over the years.A non-digital black and white photograph of a train crash at a station.

The stretch of Kororoit Creek between Deer Park and Sunshine South contains several pedestrian bridges. Many of these structures were rudimentary in design and, in numerous cases, poorly constructed. One of the more unusual examples is the bridge at Boorham Street, Sunshine South, which links across the Kororoit Creek to Pickersgill Avenue, Sunshine West. This bridge was originally built by the Watkins family many decades ago, using the chassis of two railway wagons. Its purpose was entirely practical: to move cattle across the creek. At the request of Council, the family later donated the structure, and it was subsequently decked to allow public use. However, the bridge remained inadequate, and in 1978 Council officers recommended that it be replaced as soon as possible.The Watkins family were early agricultural settlers along the Kororoit Creek corridor, contributing to the rural foundations of Sunshine South and Sunshine West before the rise of large‑scale industry. Their presence reflects the transitional period when the district shifted from creek‑based farming to rail‑linked manufacturing.boreham street, sunshine, pickersgill avenue, sunshine west
