The Lilydale to Warburton Railway Line is of regional historical and social significance, illustrating the impact of the railway on the development of the upper section of the Yarra Valley particularly for timber utilisation, and for its longevity of community use and association, symbolically representing this important aspect of the locality's past in the present, and developing a new series of public uses through community advocacy and action, ultimately enabling protection of key elements of the whole place. (Context 1994)

The Lilydale to Warburton Railway line is a linear feature (running from E 354200 N 5819900, to E 385500 N 5821000). (Context 1994) The track from the Lilydale to Warburton Railway Line has been removed. The section of the railway reserve between Launching Place and Warburton East has been developed as the 'Centenary Trail', 12 kilometres of pathway for walkers, cyclists and horse riders. Another portion has been converted into a walking track. (Watt 1993; Supple 1991)
