Glenroy railway station
Glenroy railway station is located on the Craigieburn line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the northern Melbourne suburb of Glenroy, and opened on 24 January 1887. The railway past the site of Glenroy station was opened in 1872, as part of the North East line to Wodonga. A goods siding was provided in 1908, and was extended in 1950, for the nearby flour mill. Hand gates protected the Glenroy Road level crossing until 1957, when boom barriers were provided. In 1965, the double line block signalling between Broadmeadows and Essendon was abolished, and replaced with three-position  signalling. All mechanical interlocking at the station was also abolished, and a signal panel was provided. The signal panel itself was abolished in 1987. Tait motor carriage 424M was destroyed by fire at the station on 14 September 1973. The original station buildings were provided in 1886, and were replaced by the present buildings in 1976. Glenroy was upgraded to a Premium Station in 1999. The station is set to be rebuilt for a second time by the Level Crossing Removal Project, due to the grade separation of the Glenroy Road level crossing. On 2 July 2019, it was  announced that the level crossing would be removed by lowering the railway line underneath Glenroy Road, which would include a rebuilt station. On 11 October 2020, designs for the new station were released. Major construction began in late 2020, and is expected to finish in late 2022. Platforms and services. Glenroy has two side platforms.
