Upper Sturt railway station was located on the Adelaide-Wolseley line serving the Adelaide Hills suburb of Upper Sturt. It consisted of one 81 metre platform with a waiting shelter. When the adjoining Nalawort station closed in the late 1950s, Upper Sturt become the second railway station on the South Australian Railways system to have a tunnel between it and the next station in either direction. When Upper Sturt closed, Eden Hills became unique in this regard, although by then the South Australian Railways had ceased to exist. Prior to 1956 Upper Sturt station was quite substantial, with an enclosed waiting room and ticket office. There was a relatively short section of masonry platform (approx 20 m) and a long wooden section. In the Black Sunday bushfires of 1955 all but the masonry section of the platform was totally destroyed. The station closed on 23 September 1987, when the State Transport Authority withdrew Bridgewater line services between Belair and Bridgewater. The platform has since been demolished. ==References== South Australian Railways Working Timetable Book No. 265 effective 30 June 1974 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「Upper Sturt railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
