Merredin is a town in Western Australia, located in the Central Wheatbelt roughly midway between Perth and Kalgoorlie, on Route 94, Great Eastern Highway. Merredin is located on the route of the Goldfields Water Supply Scheme, and as a result is also on the Golden Pipeline Heritage Trail. Merredin is connected by public transport to Perth via Transwa Prospector and MerredinLink rail services. Merredin, because of its unique location at a point where the track to the Goldfields met up with a reliable water supply, has developed into the most substantial town in the Central Wheat Belt. The town's promotion used to declare that it was 'The Garden Town in the Heart of the Wheat-belt'.
