Roxburgh Park railway station

Roxburgh Park railway station is located on the Craigieburn line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the northern Melbourne suburb of Roxburgh Park opening on 30 September 2007.〔(Roxburgh Park ) Vicsig〕
It was built just north of the site of the former Somerton station, which closed to passengers in 1960, the adjacent goods yard and standard gauge crossing loop retain the Somerton name.
Roxburgh Park station was built as part of the extension of electrification from Broadmeadows to Craigieburn.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://web.archive.org/web/20080723014940/http://www.doi.vic.gov.au/DOI/Internet/transport.nsf/AllDocs/07288AED1C6F3EF3CA25730D000908B5?OpenDocument )〕 The Craigieburn-bound line was slewed to the west to permit an island platform to be built between the two tracks of the broad gauge main line.
==History==

Somerton opened to traffic as a single platform on 15 May 1881.〔 In 1889 Somerton became a junction, when what is now the Upfield line was opened from North Melbourne northwards though Coburg. This line was closed to traffic from the Somerton end in 1903.〔 The line though Coburg, then terminated at Fawkner, was reopened in 1928 but no junction was provided at Somerton, instead the A.E.C. railmotor that operated the service used a turntable to the south of the station.〔 This situation remained until 1956 when the line from Fawkner was again closed.
The next change involved freight services. In 1959, the line from Somerton to Upfield was reopened for freight traffic to the Ford Motor Company factory, with suburban services extended to Upfield from the city side. On 6 December 1960 Somerton was closed to passengers, but additional freight sidings were provided in the Somerton area throughout the 1960s.〔
Construction of the Melbourne - Sydney standard gauge line also commenced at this time, opening for traffic in 1962, and the freight line to Upfield was converted to dual gauge in 1963.〔 In 1988 a dual gauge siding was provided to cement silos,〔 and in 1998 Austrack commenced development of a container terminal as part of a larger "freight village". A number of major companies entered into long-term tenancies for warehouses at the site, and in 2004, Austrak entered into a lease with P&O Trans Australia to operate the terminal. The Somerton terminal has four 750 metre dual gauge rail sidings, with connections northwards on both gauges.
Today the area to the east of the main line contains a complicated arrangement of broad, standard, and dual gauge tracks.
