[edit] Progress

76% Complete (estimate)

A fair amount of content has been added to Melbourne's railway lines articles which are now estimated at 76% complete. Of 26 railway line articles, 5 are complete, 19 are over 60% complete and 2 are 30% complete. All existing articles have an appropriate table, category, and list.

• Alamein and the City Loop could largely be considered complete, and need little attention (although the City Loop could do with signalling information).
• We now have basic articles on the Belgrave, Lilydale, Glen Waverley, Hurstbridge, Epping, Frankston, Pakenham, Sandringham, Cranbourne, Upfield, Werribee, Broadmeadows, Sydenham, Williamstown, Flemington Racecourse, and Melton lines, as well as Puffing Billy - these need to be improved to Alamein standard.
• We have nothing at all on the Stony Point, Sunbury, Craigieburn, Mornington and Healesville lines.
