'''Nevertire''' is a rural village in [New South Wales](/source/New_South_Wales), [Australia](/source/Australia).  It is located at the junction of the [Mitchell Highway](/source/Mitchell_Highway) and the [Oxley Highway](/source/Oxley_Highway), in [Warren Shire](/source/Warren_Shire). Nevertire is about 496 kilometres northwest of [Sydney](/source/Sydney), 78&nbsp;km north-west of [Narromine](/source/Narromine) and about 107&nbsp;km from [Dubbo](/source/Dubbo). It is about 20&nbsp;km south-west of [Warren](/source/Warren%2C_New_South_Wales) on the western end of the Oxley Highway.<ref>[http://www.smh.com.au/news/new-south-wales/nevertire/2005/02/17/1108500198324.html Nevertire] Retrieved on 2009-6-27</ref>  At the [2011 census](/source/Census_in_Australia), Nevertire had a population of 225 people.<ref name=ABSQS2011/>

==History==
Originally the village was known as Warren Pond. The [Main West railway line](/source/Main_Western_railway_line%2C_New_South_Wales) reached Nevertire in 1882 and the local pub was already trading before the town was surveyed in 1883.  The town was devastated by a tornado on 28 December 1896.<ref name="Australian Places">''Reader's Digest Guide to Australian Places'', Reader's Digest (Australia) Pty. Limited, Surry Hills N.S.W., 1993, {{ISBN|0-86438-399-1}}</ref> The town once had a railway station, operated by the [State Rail Authority](/source/State_Rail_Authority), but with the demise of country rail travel in the 1980s, the passenger services were replaced by a coach service run by CountryLink.

== Services ==
Nevertire is at the junction of the Main Western railway line to [Nyngan](/source/Nyngan) and the [branch line to Warren](/source/Warren_railway_line). The village is now served by three CountryLink Coach services: one to Bourke, one to Nyngan and one to Cobar/Broken Hill. Bourke Coach operates four times per week, the Broken Hill coach operates daily, and the Nyngan coach, which also serves Warren, operates four times per week.

There is a large grain handling facility on the railway line, operated by GrainCorp, and served by Pacific National trains.  
Local businesses also include a local pub (which is also the local post office), a cafe and store named The Rural Trader, welding services and a rural supplies outlet.

== Education ==
Nevertire Public school closed at the conclusion of the 2002 academic year, due to a lack of enrolments. Children in Nevertire now go to Warren Central School or St Mary's in Warren.

The village is the subject of Betty Casey's poem ''Nevertire''<ref name="Australian Places"/> and [Henry Lawson](/source/Henry_Lawson) once described it as the edge of the ''Great Grey Plain''.
