Geelong railway station is located on the Warrnambool line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the city of Geelong, and it opened on 1 November 1856. Together with Ballarat, it is one of only two stations in Victoria to have a 19th-century train shed, and is listed on the Victorian Heritage Register. The railway station complex has also been listed by the National Trust of Australia, as being of state-level significance. History Geelong station was built as the terminus of the Geelong and Melbourne Railway Company line. It was a dead-end terminus, located on the site of the present law courts complex. In November 1876, the railway was extended south to Winchelsea, necessitating the relocation of the station to the west, and between 1877 and 1881, the current station building was constructed. In 1975, the station received a minor upgrade to the refreshment rooms, and was also provided with a waiting room around this time. In 1988, the station received an upgrade, and included new passenger waiting areas and booking offices. Until the 1990s, there was a goods yard, including a large goods shed, located on the eastern side of the station. It is now the site of Geelong's law courts and police station. A locomotive depot remains to the north, and carriage stabling sidings are to the west. In March 2015, a further upgrade to the station was completed, which included the installation of a new DDA-compliant pedestrian overpass to connect all platforms, which included lifts, avoiding the need to use the original heritage-protected pedestrian bridge, which only has stairs. Platforms and services Geelong has one island platform with two faces, and one side platform. Prior to the opening of the Regional Rail Link in 2015, almost all trains used Platform 1. Platforms 2 and 3 were only used when Platform 1 was occupied; Platform 1: Up services to Southern Cross and Down services to South Geelong, Marshall, and Waurn Ponds. Platform 2: Up and Down Warrnambool services, terminating services and other services if Platform 1 was occupied. Platform 3: Terminating services, special heritage services and other services if Platform 1 was occupied. After the opening of the Regional Rail Link, Geelong now has three times as many services running, requiring trains to cross at Geelong on a regular basis. The platforms have now been divided into Up and Down platforms; Platform 1: Down services to South Geelong, Marshall, Waurn
