Gordon is a closed station located in the town of Gordon, on the Melbourne - Ballarat railway line in Victoria, Australia. The station building is now being used by the Australian Railway Historical Society. The station opened in 1879 at the same time as the line though it, with the present building dating from this time. The station was one of 35 closed to passenger traffic on 4 October 1981 as part of the ''New Deal'' timetable for country passengers. The building is of timber construction with posted verandahs along the platform and roadside elevations, as well as a distinctive curved roof. The building once included a residence, but was later altered to incorporate a central booking lobby and an enlarged stationmaster's office. The design was an experimental prototype for low cost station buildings for less important lines, and is the only example of its type. The site is listed on the Victorian Heritage Register.〔 〕 ==References== 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「Gordon railway station, Victoria」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
