Leafy Kay Street in Traralgon   Traralgon (including Glengarry) Important industrial centre in the heart of the Latrobe Valley. Traralgon, situated in the economically important Latrobe Valley, is located 162 km south-east of Melbourne via the Princes Highway and 38 metres above sea level. It is thought that the town may have been named by Edward Hobson, an early settler, after two Aboriginal words possibly meaning "river of little fish". The area was settled in the 1840s as an agricultural and pastoral centre but grew during the gold rushes due to its important location on the road from Melbourne to Sale. The town site was surveyed in 1858 with land sales commencing the following year. The arrival of the railways in the late 1870s gave the town a further economic boost. The shire of Traralgon was created in 1879. The town became a borough in 1961 and was declared a city three years later. Sir Frank Macfarlane Burnet, a medical scientist specialising in immunology who won the 1960 Nobel Prize, was born in Traralgon in 1899. Novelist Mary Grant Bruce also lived and wrote in the town a number of times during her life, drawing on the area for the settings of some of her novels.   Power stations dominate the surrounding landscape   In economic terms, Traralgon now relies principally on a pulp and paper industry and on the Loy Yang Power Complex, 6 km from the town, which first opened in 1984 after the discovery of massive brown coal reserves in the area. The open-cut mine and the two power plants with their 260-metre chimneys constitute the largest power complex in Australia. Loy Yang supplies about 40 per cent of Victoria's electricity.     Things to see:   Tourist Information Traralgon Visitor Information Centre is located at Southside Central on the Princes Hwy, tel: (03) 5174 3199.   Traralgon Hotel and other Historic Buildings The two-storey, Victorian-style Traralgon Hotel is a brick structure classified by the National Trust.
