Deer Park railway station is located on the Serviceton line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the western Melbourne suburb of Deer Park.〔(Deer Park ) Vicsig〕 ==History== The station opened as Kororoit on 2 April 1884 at the same time as the line though it, and was renamed Deer Park in 1899, by which time the station had a three road yard, passenger platform on the southern track, and a goods platform on the northern track, and an interlocked signal box. Being on a single track railway, it served as a crossing loop for trains though it, this status remaining until 1913 when the signal box was abolished.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Victorian Station Histories - Deer Park )〕 In 1928 a siding serving Nobel Chemical Finishes (Aust) Pty Ltd was opened at the Melbourne end of the station, running north to a loop siding and dead end. In 1929 alterations were made to the electric staff working of trains to permit workers trains to operate to the Nobel factories at Ardeer and Deer Park. In 1943 the signal box was reopened, in conjunction with the opening of the new Ravenhall Siding (Commonwealth Government Siding) at the down end of the yard. This new siding ran south from the line to a loop siding, before terminating at a dead end.〔 The Nobel siding (now ICIANZ) was closed in 1955, and in 1974 the line from Sunshine to Deer Park West Junction was duplicated, the current island platform provided, and the signal box closed as the line was now being worked by Centralised Traffic Control from Sunshine. Crossovers between lines were provided at each end of the platform. The Ravenhall siding was abolished in 1978. Boom barriers were provided at Mount Derrimut Road in 1981.〔 In 1987, one of the loop sidings in the yard was removed, with the last siding removed in 1989, leaving only the main line and platform.〔 In 2005, as part of the Regional Fast Rail project, control of the signalling was transferred to Ballarat signal box.〔(Deer Park Interlocking Information ) Vicsig〕 In September 2009 an upgrade of Deer Park station commenced, including: * 150 paved car parking spaces * improved station access, lighting and signage * improved station security via CCTV * retain as many trees as possible, as well as planting new trees * protect native grasses to the east of the new car park In June 2015, as part of the Regional Rail Link project, the Deer Park-West Werribee line opened to the west of Deer Park.〔(Deer Park - West Werribee Junction ) Regional Rail Link〕〔(Deer Park Junction ) Rail Geelong〕 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「Deer Park railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
