The Newport Substation, established over a century ago to convert power for Melbourne’s electric trains, was constructed between 1915 and 1916. Built in a striking neoclassical brick design, it housed three massive rotary converters and began operation in 1920 when electric services extended to Williamstown. For nearly five decades it remained a vital part of the local network until superseded by newer facilities in the 1960s.

Stone is serving three life sentences for the murders of Ms Russell, 45, and her six-year-old daughter, who were found bludgeoned to death in Chillenden, Kent, in July 1996.
