The Jimbour Station Store - incorporating the Cellar Door -  was officially opened in April 2002.

" There was a very good store at the station, in the charge of S. Grimley, where almost everything in reason, including grocery, clothing, boots etc., was stocked. All extras required by the shepherd could be ordered by him and delivered with his ration, next trip of the carrier."
