Webb Dock railway line
The Webb Dock railway line is a former railway line in Melbourne, Australia.
==History==
On 27 February 1986, the Webb Dock line was opened by Minister for Transport Tom Roper.〔(Opening plaque ) Weston Langford〕 It was built as a freight line to service the Webb Dock container port in Melbourne.
The line commenced near Spencer Street station passing through what is now Docklands Stadium before crossing the Yarra River via a bridge and then running west parallel to Lorimer Street. It turned south at Todd Road, before west parallel to Wharf Road and beneath the West Gate Bridge to Webb Dock.
It closed in 1992 and was disconnected in 1996 as part of the construction of the Docklands Stadium.〔(Port Capacity Project ) Port of Melbourne〕〔"Appleton Dock Standard Gauge Access but Webb Dock Remains Without Rails" ''Railway Digest'' May 2000 page 13〕 The bridge over the Yarra River was converted to a footbridge. Much of the line west of the Bolte Bridge remains in situ, with suggestions it may be reactivated for passenger use as the Fishermans Bend area is redeveloped for residential use.
