Alphington railway station is located on the Hurstbridge line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the north-eastern Melbourne suburb of Alphington, and opened on 8 May 1888.[1]

History

Alphington station opened on 8 May 1888, when a railway line between Collingwood and Heidelberg was provided.[1] Like the suburb itself, the station was named after Alphington in Devon, England, which was the birthplace of Sir William Manning, who subdivided his property in the area into a village.[2][3]

In 1912, duplication between Westgarth and Alphington was provided.[1] In 1951, duplication to Ivanhoe was provided.[1]

In 1966, boom barriers replaced interlocked gates at the Yarralea Street level crossing, located at the down end of the station.[4][5] The signal box and a goods yard were also abolished at that time.[1]

In 1979, the current station buildings were provided.[6]
