It just works. There's nothing more to say than having ample shelter, seating, customer service and parking. There's also a narrow ramp that is also very steep making it inaccessible. It's also aesthetically unappealing with its location in the bottom of a ditch making views of anything interesting impossible. Overall, it's just another station that does what it does.

It's a train station. The stops either way are greensborough and macleod. It goes to the city and out to hurstbridge. You can buy mykis and recharge them there. Sometimes you might see grumpy old people and silly young people. Every now and then a train runs late, less likely they are early. The drink machine is overpriced. Pretty average overall.

  • D Herbert

Old, run down station. Is meant to be upgraded soon, though that may take a few years. Long steep ramp down to access platforms from street level, ok if you’re going down but would be hard work on the way back up.

Not a very visually appealing station, however it does its job well, has a customer service desk, toilets, many places to sit, is nearby the main shopping area and is very well accessible via a ramp.

  • Peter J Shacklock

An architecturally uninspiring gateway to Melbourne's metropolitan rail network. Does what it says on the box - trains arrive, and depart.

  • James Stark

Shocking, parking gone before 7.00am on weekdays - then they fine you if you park on the nature strip and even that area is full at 7.15am

  • Thomas Liontis

Ramp provides decent access to the station, has some Myki machines and a waiting area. Services on this line are reasonably frequent.

Not too bad of a Station, nice location! just a little packed during peak hours! Trust me this used to be my local station

  • Don Ewart

Ugly as, being in a ditch with long ramp access but a popular and efficient station.

  • Jason Bourke

What can I say! Terrific station, ticks all of the boxes and then some. 5/5

  • Adrian Goslett
