Glenroy railway station

Glenroy railway station is located on the Craigieburn line, in Victoria, Australia. It serves the northern Melbourne suburb of Glenroy opening on 24 January 1887.

The railway past the site of Glenroy station was opened in 1872, as part of the North East line to Wodonga.

A goods siding was provided in 1908, and was extended in 1950, for the nearby flour mill. Hand gates protected the Glenroy Road level crossing until 1965, when boom barriers were provided. The original station buildings were provided in 1886, and were replaced by the present buildings in 1976. The station was upgraded to a premium station in 1999.

The station is set to be rebuilt for a second time by the Level Crossing Removal Authority, due to an election promise to remove the Glenroy Road level crossing, where the railway line will be lowered underneath the road, with the railway station being at a lower level. The exact construction details are yet to be confirmed, pending community consultation.

Tait motor carriage 424M was destroyed by fire at the station on 14 September 1973.
