Gellibrand Railway Station

Gellibrand was a railway station on the now-dismantled Victorian Railways narrow gauge Crowes railway line, 17 miles 20 chains (27.75 km) from Colac, Victoria. It had a single low-level platform with three tracks. A fourth one was added in 1923. The station closed in 1962, along with the Colac to Beech Forest section of the line.

The station yard and a portion of the railway reservation is now part of the Old Beechy Rail Trail. The original station building survives, which is used to display historical information.
