Heathfield railway station, Adelaide

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Heathfield railway station was located on the now closed Bridgewater line 33.0 km (20m42ch) by rail from Adelaide, South Australia.

Facilities consisted of an 85.3 metre long platform and a shelter.

The station was located in the Adelaide Hills suburb of Heathfield, at the north of the end of Keithley Road, and south of Bogaduck Road, Aldgate. It was close to Heathfield High School and as a result was well patronised by the students. With the downgrading of services in the mid to late 1980s, students were forced to find other ways of getting to/from school, and most students were left unhappy as a result.

Heathfield was closed in 1987 when suburban rail services on the Bridgewater line ceased. The platform has since been demolished.
