Geelong Racecourse (commonly known as Breakwater) is a railway station on the Geelong railway line in South Geelong, Victoria, Australia. The station was only used for special events at the nearby Geelong Racecourse, the Geelong Racing Club originally paid £1000 in 1906 to have the station built. The last V/Line service stopping there was for the 2005 Geelong Cup.[1] In 2005 the points from the main line have been spiked,[2][3] preventing trains from accessing the platform. In recent years local residents have made calls to reinstate the station for regular services.
