Facilities
Craigieburn has two side platforms for through trains, and terminating facilities are provided. The main station building is located on platform 2, with small shelters on platform 1. A pedestrian crossing crosses the track connected platforms at the north end, with the old Hume Highway overpass located further north again. Stabling sidings connected to platform 2 are located north of the overpass.
In April/May 2009 Platform 1 (the old country design) was demolished and rebuilt to a similar design to Platform 2. Electrification on the platform began on August 2009 enabling metropolitan trains to access Platforms 1 and 2 fully.
Also Craigieburn Station has parking facilities to cater for 300 rail commuters.

Famous quotes containing the word facilities:

—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
“Marriage is good enough for the lower classes: they have facilities for desertion that are denied to us.”
