Avenel railway station is located on the North East line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the town of Avenel opening on 20 November 1872.〔(Avenel ) Vicsig〕 The station is now under the care of a group of local stationeers〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Stationeers Program )〕 who meet every Friday morning to maintain the station and surrounding gardens. They have also restored the building, including the McKenzie & Holland lever frame. ==History== Avenel station opened with the line on 20 November 1872 with a long platform, temporary station buildings, and a large goods shed. In 1875 the goods shed was destroyed by fire and replaced the next year. A permanent station building was provided in 1881, which had been replaced by the 1970s. Platform 1, which faced the former broad gauge track on the eastern side, was originally on a loop siding off the main line, the main line being slewed to its present location during rationalisation of the yard.〔 As part of the North East Rail Revitalisation Project, a second platform was constructed on the 1960s built standard gauge line, in conjunction with the standard gauge conversion of the existing broad gauge track. It was completed in August 2010.〔(Program of Works ) South Improvement Alliance〕〔($500 million rail link upgrade for Victoria's north-east ) ''The Age'' 30 May 2008〕〔(North East rail project will bring local and national benefits ) Australian Rail Track Corporation 13 March 2009〕 Former station Mangalore was located between Avenel and Seymour, while Monea, Locksley, Longwood and Creighton stations were located between Avenel and Euroa. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Avenel railway station, Victoria」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
