	Upfield railway line, Melbourne - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		The line was in serious doubt in the late 1980s and early 1990s with rumours of the line been converting into light rail or even closure.
		The future of the line was not secured until 1994, with the upgrading of the signalling and level crossings and duplicating track between Merlynston and Gowrie.
		Older Comeng and Hitachi rolling stock runs on this line -- the newer Siemens could not originally be run on this line when they were first introduced, as a breakdown requires towing at both ends, something which is impossible because of the single line section past Gowrie.

		Eleven through platforms were provided at the station on its completion in 1910 and were vastly different from the original platforms which sported semi-circular verandahs terminated by timber valances and at the west end 'train sheds', embracing both platforms and tracks.
		The old Port Melbourne and St Kilda line platform verandah was far too good to throw away, so the department had it dismantled and re-erected at Hawthorn, which in those days, was a much busier station.
		The clocks at the main entrance of the station were part of the original design plans, and remain in almost the same place as they did in the early years of construction.

		When Archer raced to victory on the two mile track at Flemington in 1861, he began a tradition that was to become a part of a nation's mythology and would produce such legends as Carbine, Tulloch and Phar Lap.
