History

The town takes its name from the railway station and is said to be an Aboriginal word meaning water gum, Syzygium gustavioides. The railway station was in use from 1915 to 1964.[1]

Dirran State School opened on 3 May 1915. On 21 October 1918 it was renamed Tarzali State School. It closed on 31 December 1967.[3]

gollark: Also wildly expensive and with weird screens I dislike.
gollark: I'm going to need to replace my phone or figure out some way to swap the battery soon, but it seems like no newer phones actually have the features I want: removable battery, LCD screen, no notch, good custom ROM support, μSD slot.
gollark: It's pretty evil that they make you jump through so many hoops just to have some amount of control of the software on your phone.
