Amery is a rail siding and townsite {{convert|9|km|mi|1}} northeast of Dowerin in the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia.

It was an important junction for the railway line going north to Mullewa [1] and the line going east to Wyalkatchem.

History

Amery was first known as "Ejanding" in 1910. Its name was changed to Amery in 1928, apparently because another railway siding approximately {{convert|26|km}} further north was to be named Ejanding.[2]

A newspaper that included the name of Amery was the Dowerin guardian and Amery line advocate which was published between 1927 and 1958 [3]
