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 peak hour, trains to Melbourne depart from Platform 2, and trains to Bendigo depart from Platform 1, this reverses after 8:30am. 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]

Platform 1:

• Bendigo line: services to Bendigo, Swan Hill & Southern Cross

Platform 2:

• Bendigo line: services to Kyneton, Bendigo, Epsom, Swan Hill & Southern Cross
