Woodend railway station is located on the Bendigo line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the town of Woodend and opened on 8 July 1861.
The station once had extra sidings on the far side of platform 2, as well as a turntable. The original stationmaster's house still stands. It was built in 1897, and at the time the stationmaster was able to see along the track from the doorways.
The disused station at Carlsruhe is located between Woodend and Kyneton stations.
Platforms & services
Woodend has two side platforms. It is served by V/Line Bendigo, Echuca and Swan Hill line trains. In the morning peak hour, trains to Melbourne depart from Platform 2, and trains to Bendigo depart from Platform 1. That reverses after 8:30am, to allow services in the peak direction of travel to utilise the single 160 km/h track that was upgraded in 2006 as part of the Regional Fast Rail project.
