North Shore Railway Station

North Shore railway station is a station on the Melbourne - Geelong railway line, and is located in North Shore, a suburb of Geelong, Victoria, Australia. There are two broad gauge passenger tracks at the station, and trains can travel in either direction on either line.

In addition, the Western standard gauge line runs on the west side of the station. It is used by freight trains to and from Adelaide, and a short platform is provided at North Shore for The Overland passenger service from Melbourne to Adelaide.

A kilometre south of North Shore is a connection from the Melbourne - Geelong line to the Geelong - Ballarat line, which is used by freight trains.

Famous quotes containing the words north, shore, railway and/or station:

    The Bostonians are really, as a race, far inferior in point of anything beyond mere intellect to any other set upon the continent of North America. They are decidedly the most servile imitators of the English it is possible to conceive.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)

    Any man that resists the present tides that run in the world, will find himself thrown upon a shore so high and barren that it will seem he has been separated from his human kind forever.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    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)

    With boys you always know where you stand. Right in the path of a hurricane. It’s all there. The fruit flies hovering over their waste can, the hamster trying to escape to cleaner air, the bedrooms decorated in Early Bus Station Restroom.
    Erma Bombeck (20th century)
