Euroa railway station is located on the North East line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the town of Euroa opening on 20 March 1873.〔(Euroa ) Vicsig〕 ==History== The station was opened with the line in 1873, with the first permanent station building erected in 1878. The platform was initially long, being extended to in 1900. A second long platform once existed at Euroa, located against the goods shed wall and in use between 1880 and 1904 to permit the handling of two crossing passenger trains. An iron footbridge linked the two platforms between 1900 and 1904. The first lever frame for signals was provided in 1885 and was made part of the station building in 1929. The tracks layout was altered in 1931, this remaining until the 1970s, followed by the rationalised layout seen today. Two pedestrian subways and the overpass at Anderson Street to the south were provided as part of the standard gauge works in 1960.〔 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. Work began in December 2008, and was completed in late 2009.〔(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 stations Creighton, Longwood, Locksley and Monea were located between Euroa and Avenel, while Balmattum was located between Euroa and Violet Town. 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「Euroa railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
