Geelong Station was the original terminus of the Geelong and Melbourne Railway Company line. The first Geelong Station was a dead ended terminus located somewhere near the present Law Courts Complex. In 1876 the railway was extended south to Colac, and the station was altered.
The present station building dates back to the 1880s. It was originally surrounded by a goods yard that has been progressively relocated. A locomotive deport remains to the north, and carriage stabling sidings are to the west.
