Albury railway station is the station serving the New South Wales border town of Albury on the main Sydney–Melbourne railway line. The station is from Central railway station in Sydney.
History
Designed and constructed under the supervision of John Whitton, Albury Station was opened on 3 February 1881, coinciding with the opening of the Gerogery to Albury extension of the Great Southern Line from Sydney. At that time the Victorian line was complete as far as Wodonga, and so a rail trip between Sydney and Melbourne required the use of a short coach connection to cross the Murray River.
The broad gauge line from Melbourne reached Albury in 1883. New South Wales railways were built to the standard gauge, which meant that all travellers in either direction had to change trains at Albury. A very long railway platform was needed to accommodate that move, and the covered platform provided is one of the longest in Australia. In 1962, a new standard gauge line was built to Melbourne's Spencer Street Station (now Southern Cross), and so all interstate passenger services use the long standard gauge platform. Broad gauge trains from Melbourne continued using the back (dock) platform until 2008, after which the broad gauge line to Melbourne was converted to standard gauge.
