Royal Adelaide Show
Goodwood station is the main railway station servicing the Royal Adelaide Showgrounds. However, in recent years during the Royal Adelaide Show Week, TransAdelaide has closed platform 1 at Goodwood, and exclusively devoted the eastern-most of the four tracks between Adelaide and Goodwood to a non-stop shuttle service between platform 1 at Adelaide Railway Station and a temporary platform at the Showgrounds named "Showground Central". During this period, Belair Line movements are merged with Noarlunga Line movements through platforms 2 and 3 at Goodwood.

Famous quotes containing the words royal and/or show:
“High from the summit of a craggy cliff,
Hung o’er the deep, such as amazing frowns
On utmost Kilda’s shore, whose lonely race
Resign the setting sun to Indian worlds,
The royal eagle draws his vigorous young”
—James Thomson (1700–1748)
“The English Bible—a book which, if everything else in our language should perish, would alone suffice to show the whole extent of its beauty and power.”
—Thomas Babington Macaulay (1800–1859)
