Tallarook railway station is located on the North East line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the town of Tallarook opening on 18 April 1872.〔(Tallarook ) Vicsig〕 Former station School House Lane / Dysart Sidings / Goulburn Junction was located between Tallarook and Seymour. ==History== The station was opened in 1872 along with the line though it, and became a junction for the Mansfield branch line to Yea in 1883, the line being extended to Mansfield in 1891 and Alexandra in 1909. A turntable was added when the station became a junction, and the main line was duplicated from Broadford in the same year, the double track being extended north in 1886. The first interlocked signal box was erected in 1885, controlling three platforms and a four road yard.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Victorian Station Histories - Tallarook station )〕 The crossovers for the branch line initially faced Seymour, requiring Melbourne-bound trains to reverse; a Melbourne-facing crossover was added in 1911. When the parallel standard gauge line was built though the station in 1961, it cut right though the middle of the station, with three gauge crossings provided between the broad gauge main line and the sidings on the other side. A new signal box was also opened at this time, with a crossing loop on the standard gauge line opened in 1969, the only one added after the initial construction of the line.〔 Tallarook served as the junction for the Mansfield line to Mansfield and Alexandra until 1978, with the last regular passenger train to Mansfield operating in 1977. After the line to Mansfield was closed one of the gauge crossings was removed in 1979, another being removed at the down end in 1981. The last connection to the goods yard was abolished in 1984 but the signals for them remained, until the signal box was closed in 1987 and the station left as straight track.〔 Work on extending Tallarook Loop on the standard gauge line into a 6.8 kilometre long passing lane commenced in 2008. Work included extending the existing loop southwards, installation of higher speed points at each end, and resignalling.〔(Program of Works ) South Improvement Alliance〕 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「Tallarook railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
