select number of peak hour services also run as express trains beyond Box Hill, running express between Box Hill, Blackburn, Mitcham and Ringwood. Peak hour express trains are supplemented by Alamein line services stopping all stations between Flinders Street and Camberwell. A limited number of services terminate at Mooroolbark or Ringwood. Weekend services on the Lilydale line run direct from Richmond to Flinders Street and then commence outbound journeys via the City Loop, stopping all stations to Lilydale except East Richmond. Early morning weekend services run direct to and from Flinders Street, stopping all stations including East Richmond. Belgrave and Lilydale line trains alternate as shuttles from and to Ringwood during early morning and late night services all week. All weekday morning services operate via the City Loop to Flinders Street in anticlockwise direction. On weekday afternoons, most services travel direct to Flinders Street before travelling via the Loop with some Blackburn all-station services running back to Richmond without going through the City Loop. Weekend services travel direct to Flinders Street before running via the Loop. This does not include night services. Stopping patterns Operators Route From near Richmond, there are four tracks to Burnley where the Glen Waverley line branches off. From Burnley, the line is triplicated to Box Hill, then duplicated to Mooroolbark, while the final section between Mooroolbark and Lilydale is single track. After Lilydale station is a closed railway line that extends to Healesville. The Lilydale line runs through Melbourne's eastern suburbs across mostly gentle hills (but with some steeper sections near the end of the line), having few straight or level sections. Earthworks are significant, with deep cuttings at Hawthorn, Camberwell, Box Hill, Heatherdale and near Croydon. Around Glenferrie and Auburn the line has been raised above the surrounding area on an embankment to avoid level crossings of several roads. All but two level crossings have been eliminated between the city and Ringwood (Union Road at Surrey Hills and Mont Albert Road near Mont Albert). In 2010 grade separation removed the level crossing at Springvale Road, Nunawading, previously a major bottleneck. Grade separation removed the level crossings at Rooks Road and Mitcham Road, at Mitcham, in January 2014. Further grade separation works has also removed the level crossings at Blackburn Road at Blackburn station, and at Heatherdale Road at Heatherdale station.
