Bomen

Bomen, a northern suburb of Wagga Wagga in New South Wales, is characterized by its industrial enterprises, including Cargill Beef, Watties, and the Wagga Wagga Livestock Marketing Centre. The area also features the heritage-listed Bomen railway station, which opened in 1878 and was briefly the terminus of the Main Southern line before a bridge was constructed across the Murrumbidgee River to reach Wagga Wagga. The suburb is home to the Bomen Business Park, which includes Cargill Foods Australia, Heinz-Watties factory, BOC Gas plant, and Austrak concrete sleeper plant. Bomen is also the site of the proposed Riverina Intermodal Freight & Logistics Hub.
