List Of Regional Railway Stations In Victoria
This is a list of the currently operating Victorian regional railway stations serviced by V/Line operated trains. The stations make up 7 radial passenger train lines, which all operate out of Southern Cross Station in Melbourne, Australia, with 2 further lines proposed to be reopened to V/Line passenger rail services.
Stations listed in bold are terminus stations. Frequent services operate to the major regional cities of Ballarat, Bendigo, Geelong, Seymour, and the Latrobe Valley; with a smaller number of services continuing to the end of their respective lines.
Services to Ballarat, Bendigo, Geelong, and the Latrobe Valley were upgraded as part of the Regional Fast Rail project completed in 2006. Four lines previously closed to passenger services - those to Ararat, Bairnsdale, Leongatha and Mildura were proposed to be refurbished as part of the Linking Victoria project. While all were expected to reopen during 2004, only the Ararat and Bairnsdale lines have been reopened, with the Leongatha and Mildura projects delayed.

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, railway, stations and/or victoria:
“Every morning I woke in dread, waiting for the day nurse to go on her rounds and announce from the list of names in her hand whether or not I was for shock treatment, the new and fashionable means of quieting people and of making them realize that orders are to be obeyed and floors are to be polished without anyone protesting and faces are to be made to be fixed into smiles and weeping is a crime.”
—Janet Frame (b. 1924)
“Modern tourist guides have helped raised tourist expectations. And they have provided the natives—from Kaiser Wilhelm down to the villagers of Chichacestenango—with a detailed and itemized list of what is expected of them and when. These are the up-to- date scripts for actors on the tourists’ stage.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
“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)
“The only road to the highest stations in this country is that of the law.”
—William Jones (1746–1794)
“Sometimes my wife complains that she’s overwhelmed with work and just can’t take one of the kids, for example, to a piano lesson. I’ll offer to do it for her, and then she’ll say, “No, I’ll do it.” We have to negotiate how much I trespass into that mother role—it’s not given up easily.”
—Anonymous Father. As quoted in Women and Their Fathers, by Victoria Secunda, ch. 3 (1992)
