Spotswood railway station (original) (raw)

dbo:abstract

Spotswood railway station is located on the Werribee and Williamstown lines in Victoria, Australia. It serves the western Melbourne suburb of Spotswood, and opened on 1 December 1878 as Edom. It was renamed Bayswater on 1 September 1881, renamed Spottiswoode on 1 October 1881, and renamed Spotswood on 1 August 1905. Over the years, a number of sidings were provided to businesses in the area. In 1914, a branch line was opened at the down end of the station to the Newport Power Station, in addition to a number of other sidings serving oil terminals in the area. A siding at the up end of the station served the Australian Glass Manufacturers factory, being used by sand trains from Koala Siding (near Nyora on the South Gippsland line). The last sand train ran on 15 January 1998. In 1972, both platforms received extensions. In 1988, a number of points and dwarf signals at the station were abolished. In 1989, boom barriers replaced interlocked gates at the Hudson Road level crossing, at the up end of the station. In 1994, a number of alterations occurred at the station, including the removal of a crossover at the down end, as well as the overhead wire for siding "K", the connections for siding "K" and the oil sidings, and a number of points and signals. A disused signal box is at the up end of Platform 1. It was decommissioned in 2001, along with the removal of the crossover at the up end, a number of dwarf signals and a siding. The remains of some sidings that ran along public roads in the area were removed by Hobsons Bay Council in 2007. On 26 October 2022, the Level Crossing Removal Project announced that the level crossing will be grade separated by 2030, with the railway line likely to be rebuilt over the road, and will include a rebuilt station.
