}}Avenel railway station is located on the North East line, in Victoria, Australia. It serves the town of Avenel, and opened on 20 November 1872.[1]

The station is now under the care of a group of local volunteers,[2] who meet every Friday morning to maintain the station and surrounding gardens. They have also restored the building, including the McKenzie & Holland lever frame.

History

Avenel station opened with the line on 20 November 1872, with a {{convert|200|ft|m}} long platform, temporary station buildings, and a large goods shed. In 1875, the goods shed was destroyed by fire, and was replaced following year. A permanent station building was provided in 1881, which had been replaced by the 1970s.[3]

Platform 1, which faced the former broad gauge track on the eastern side, was originally on a loop siding off the main line, with the main line slewed to its present location during rationalisation of the yard.[3]

During July 1997, a number of roads were abolished, as well as all signals, effectively leaving Avenel as a "through" station.[4]

As part of the North East Rail Revitalisation Project, a second platform was constructed on the 1960s built standard gauge line, in conjunction with the standard gauge conversion of the existing broad gauge track. It was completed in August 2010.[5][6][7]

Former station Mangalore was located between Avenel and Seymour, while Monea, Locksley, Longwood and Creighton stations were located between Avenel and Euroa.
