List Of Melbourne Railway Stations
This is a list of the 200 currently operating suburban railway stations (216 including greater metropolitan stations) in Melbourne, Australia. The stations make up 16 radial railway lines (and 3 greater metropolitan lines), as well as the central City Loop.
There are also a further 19 stations on 3 heritage, volunteer-operated, tourist railways. These are not a part of the suburban network.
Stations are broken up into 2 Metcard ticketing zones (some stations are in the overlap between the two zones, where tickets for either zone may be used), as well as the City Saver area, which is within Zone 1 and covers the central business district. On March 4, 2007 zone 3 was abolished by being incorporated into Zone 2.
- Stations listed in bold are terminus stations. On some lines, some trains will be timetabled to terminate before the end of the line. Shuttle trains are also run between terminus stations on some lines.
- Stations listed in italics are "premium stations" that are manned the entire day by staff who provide extra assistance and information to commuters.
- Stations followed by an asterisk ( * ) are "host stations". These stations are manned during peak hours only. Some are manned only during morning peak, some during both morning and evening peaks.
- Listed in parentheses after each station is that station's 3-letter code. These codes are used internally by the railway control system and can also be entered into the PTV journey planner as abbreviation codes in place of the full station name.

“Thirty—the promise of a decade of loneliness, a thinning list of single men to know, a thinning brief-case of enthusiasm, thinning hair.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
“A man’s interest in a single bluebird is worth more than a complete but dry list of the fauna and flora of a town.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Her personality had an architectonic quality; I think of her when I see some of the great London railway termini, especially St. Pancras, with its soot and turrets, and she overshadowed her own daughters, whom she did not understand—my mother, who liked things to be nice; my dotty aunt. But my mother had not the strength to put even some physical distance between them, let alone keep the old monster at emotional arm’s length.”
—Angela Carter (1940–1992)
“I can’t quite define my aversion to asking questions of strangers. From snatches of family battles which I have heard drifting up from railway stations and street corners, I gather that there are a great many men who share my dislike for it, as well as an equal number of women who ... believe it to be the solution to most of this world’s problems.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
