Horsham railway station is located on the Western standard gauge line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the town of Horsham.[1]

History

The station was served by V/Line Dimboola services until these were withdrawn on 21 August 1993.[2]

In April 2007 the station was upgraded at a total cost of $490,000.[3]

However only a small section of the platform was resurfaced which has resulted in passengers having to move up or down the train to access the platform.
