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 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.

 Rosanna, Victoria
One reason for this was that Heidelberg did not achieve a railway connection until 1888, and then only to Collingwood: a commuter had either to take a tram from Collingwood to Melbourne or continue by train by a westerly route.
Rosanna was briefly noted in the Victorian Municipal Directory until the early postwar years as having a railway station, school, telephone bureau, a church and sporting clubs.
In 1838 the land around the Warringal (Heidelberg) village was divided into nine portions of between one and two square miles.

After withdrawal from service in 1982 it was loaned permanently to the Sydney Tramway Museum in 1987 by the San Fransisco Municipal Railway (which also operates three trams of this class, restored in 1993) to mark the bi-centennial (Sydney being San Fransisco's sister city), and No. 1014 commenced running at the Museum in April 1989.
