About Windsor Station
Windsor railway station is a commuter railway station on the Sandringham line, which is part of the Melbourne railway network. It serves the south-eastern suburb of Windsor, in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Windsor station is a ground level host station, featuring two side platforms. It opened on 19 December 1859.[4]
Initially opened as Chapel Street, the station was given its current name of Windsor on 1 January 1867.[4]
The station is listed on the Victorian Heritage Register.[5]
The station was the terminus for services on the Brighton Beach line, which opened in 1859, and operated by the St Kilda & Brighton Railway Company. The company also built the loop branch line, connecting the Brighton line to the Melbourne – St Kilda line, which opened in 1857.
No evidence of the bridge over St Kilda Road or the embankments remain, although the alignment of the loop can be traced by the residual parkland and some oddly-shaped property boundaries. A small park to the west of Windsor is called "Windsor Siding".
