North Melbourne railway station

VERY BUSY STATION ON THE CRAIGIEBURN, SUNBURY , WERRIBEE, UPFIELD AND WILLIAMSTOWN LINES
Oddly, the North Melbourne station is actually located in West Melbourne!
Once the new Metro Tunnel project is completed, the station will be renamed to West Melbourne (with a new North Melbourne Station being built as part of the new project).
Going to the city from North Melbourne is super easy with all lines going either directly to Flinders St or via the city loop. YOu shouldn't have to wait more than a couple of minutes at peak times.
The station is below ground level with escalators and a lift serving each platform.
The station is staffed and has a Myki dispensing and topping up machine outside as well.
The station was modernised some years back so it has a very modern entry area and a very old section at the far end connecting platforms but not offering an exit.
There is a cafe on site for those desperate for an early caffeine hit!
A short walk to the Errol St cafes. Its not too far to the Victoria Market but if you are already on the train, best to head for Melbourne Central Station which is a bit closer.
There is a very handy 401 bus that leaves every few minutes from North Melbourne Station express to Royal Melbourne Hospital and Melbourne Uni.
The station is very busy at morning peak and it gets very squashy going in to own

The bloke in the control centre who reliably announces my Platform Five SX connection in the mornings. You add value. Great job improving my commute. I like hearing your familiar voice. Give that man a bonus.

It's modern easy to find ur platform well signaged lifts for wheelchair uses

While waiting at North Melbourne Train Station the other week Staff member Sandra went out of her way several times to Assist me making my Travel experience Home a Pleasure . Thank You Sandra .

Great!

Clean and easy accessible.

First time here in about 10 years. Even though I live in North Melbourne. Old station. Polychromatic brickwork. Tuckpointing. Cast iron lace. Bluestone. Could with a spruce up spring clean. Well spring is on the way ...

Have friends who live in area and previously would need to get off at Flinders and switch to get to North Melbourne train station but now on Frankston line you don't need to as Werribee and Williamstown trains run through to North Melbourne, fantastic!! Note if you suffer from vertigo good lord standing at the top of escalator can be an experience, though there is a lift. There is also a viewing platform on side street where you can sit and watch the world go by (literally).

Not a bad station, quite new, services lots of lines as well, all the north and western lines go through here.

Very recently rebuilt railway station that is actually located in WEST Melbourne.
Modern facilities to cater for thousands of passengers weekly, but one major thing was overlooked during the reconstruction.........
There is only ONE Male toilet located on the exit level to Adderley Street

Have a go at this beauty! 100 years old? 20 years old? Only greg knows and his train already left.

While you're questioning everything around you, take in this quote;

"This cosmic dance of bursting decadence and withheld permissions twists all our arms collectively, but if sweetness can win, and it can, then I'll still be here tomorrow, to high five you yesterday my friend. Peace"

Thanks. Now look up, look down, frown and here's Greg! "How old is this station Greg?"

Greg isn't actually there and you're wearing a fabulous frock. Go you!

Off you go, catch that train you've been waiting for and be beautiful.

The stop you need to change at for city loop/ sthn cross direct services. Also if coming in from the Nth to get to the West

Why is it always here the train replacement buses are absolutely awful??
My father took four hours to get home to Hoppers Crossing from Fitzroy tonight. At least stop being lazy and find out WHEN the next bus is coming.

got lost trying to find the exit to this station for 2 hours! how can something so simple be designed so poorly?

There is not enaugh seat benches on the platforms

Not enough seat on platforms

An old lady with grey hair was working at 2:00 pm /6th of march with blue jacket neglected to respond our query and was responding to others . Racism at its peak ! Good job
