Goodwood railway station is the junction station for the Belair, Seaford and Flinders lines. The Belair line diverges south-east towards Millswood, while the Seaford and Flinders lines diverge south-west towards Clarence Park. The Glenelg tram line crosses over the railway lines at the south end of Goodwood station. The station services the Adelaide inner-southern suburb of Goodwood, and is 5.0 km from Adelaide station. History Goodwood railway station opened on 5 March 1883 with the opening of the Adelaide to Aldgate section of the Adelaide-Melbourne line. It became a junction station in 1915 when the Willunga railway line (now the Seaford railway line) was constructed. Prior to 1929, what is now the Glenelg tram line was a railway line that crossed the main south line on a level junction. As part of its conversion from a broad gauge railway to a standard gauge tramway, a bridge was built to carry the trams safely over the railway lines. Pre-1955, the Belair trains typically used Platform 1 for outbound services, and Platform 2 for inbound services, whilst the Willunga trains used Platform 3 for outbound services, and Platform 4 for inbound services. The yard immediately south allowed trains to transfer from any platform to any line. The most common use of this feature was when Inter/Intrastate freight and passenger trains would use the Willunga tracks to Goodwood from Keswick Rail Yards, then change to the Belair tracks through Goodwood Yard. Prior to the One Nation gauge standardisation project in 1995, all four tracks at Goodwood were broad gauge, and the Belair line was dual broad gauge tracks. In 1995, the western track of the Belair line was converted to standard gauge, and the Belair line is now only a single track of each gauge. Goodwood station was the main railway station servicing the Royal Adelaide Showgrounds. However between 2005 and 2013 during the Royal Adelaide Show, TransAdelaide closed Platform 1 at Goodwood, and exclusively devoted the easternmost of the four tracks between Adelaide and Goodwood to a non-stop shuttle service between Platform 1 at Adelaide station and a temporary platform at the Showgrounds named Showground Central. During this period, Belair line movements were merged with (the previously) Noarlunga Line movements through Platforms 2 and 3 at Goodwood. In 2014, Showground Central was replaced by the permanent Adelaide Showground station with existing services making additional stops. Renewal In 2013-14 tracks through the station
