Elphinstone Railway Station, Victoria

Elphinstone railway station was located on the Bendigo line, serving the Victoria town of the same name. The station opened in October 1862, and was closed to passenger traffic on 4 October 1981, as part of the New Deal timetable for country passengers.

All points and signals, and the interlocked frame, were abolished in 1988. The double line block sections, Kyneton – Elphinstone and Elphinstone – Castlemaine "A" box, were abolished, and replaced with double line block section, Kyneton – Castlemaine "A" box.

The station building is now leased as a private residence.
