Whittlesea, Victoria, Australia.[1] HistoryDespite its proximity to Melbourne, the town of Whittlesea and the stations it served beyond the Melbourne suburban electrified area had a small population. The Whittlesea line was a branch of the Epping line diverging at South Morang. The freight service to Whittlesea was closed in the mid 1950s and the passenger service remained until the line beyond Thomastown was closed on 28 November 1959. The line was partially reopened for suburban electric trains as far Epping in the early 1960s, with the track beyond removed in 1970, although the section from Epping from South Morang has been subsequently relaid and opened in 2012. The former right-of-way remains in Victorian Government ownership with the land being classed as parklands, and the section between South Morang and Mernda reopened in 2018. The station also had a siding which connected to the Kinglake timber tramway.[2] References1. ^Whittlesea - Vicsig infrastructure http://www.vicsig.net/infrastructure/location/Whittlesea {{Disused rail start}}{{rail line|col={{Victoria color|closed}}2. ^Wooden rails to Kinglake and Flowerdale : timber tramways of Whittlesea by R.
