Upper Sturt railway station was located on the Adelaide-Wolseley line serving the Adelaide Hills suburb of Upper Sturt.[1] It was located 29.3 km from Adelaide station.

History

It is unclear when the station was opened. It consisted of one 81 metre platform with a waiting shelter. Prior to 1956 the 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 (approx 1993).

When the adjoining Nalawort station closed on 12 December 1945, 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.
