The Westland was a magazine mainly devoted to historic railway operations in Western Australia, with items relating to current operations included.
[4] The magazine was published by Rail Heritage WA, the Western Australian branch of the Australian Railway Historical Society.
[7] It derives its name from The Westland, the overnight passenger service between Kalgoorlie and Perth on the Western Australian Government Railways that operated between 1938 and 1969.
Some magazine issues also used to commemorate special anniversaries of specific railway lines/services, as well as those relating to the organization.
It occasionally included reviews of books and media related to railways.
