[10] On 20 October 1888, the Village of Murrumbidgerie was proclaimed,[11] and land was reserved for a common[12] and for water supply purposes[13] The latter land is the site of the dam on Eulamoga Creek, known as Wongarbon Tank, which for many years was the village's water supply.

[16] The name 'Murrumbidgerie' is still used in connection with an area closer to the Macquarie River, south of Wolgarbon and west of Geurie.

[22] Following the end of the First World War, the remainder of the old 'Murrumbidgerie' landholding, near to the village, was broken up, under the policy of closer settlement, as soldier settler blocks.

[23] Wheat growing became important in the area, and the village's railway siding was used to dispatch the crop by train.

The nearest railway stations are at Dubbo and Geurie, which are served by a daily train service.

There is a grain siding on the Main Western railway line, which has storage sheds and a grain-loader for trains.
