Gisborne railway station is located on the Bendigo line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the town of New Gisborne.[1]

Platforms & services

Gisborne has two side island platforms. It is serviced by V/Line Bendigo, Echuca and Swan Hill line services.[2][3][4] In the morning, trains to Melbourne depart from Platform 2, and trains to Bendigo depart from Platform 1, this reverses in the afternoon. This is to allow services in the peak direction of travel to utilise the single 160 km/h track that was upgraded in 2006 as part of the Regional Fast Rail project. In March 2014 the platforms were extended to accommodate longer trains.[5]
