Gardiner railway station
Gardiner railway station is located on the Glen Waverley line, in Victoria, Australia. It serves the eastern Melbourne suburb of Glen Iris, and opened on 24 March 1890.
The station buildings were rebuilt in 1975, and have since been demolished, as part of the grade separation project.
In July 2015, a grade separation project, to replace the Burke Road road/tramway crossing, commenced. The station was demolished in September 2015, with a temporary station opening soon after. On 18 January 2016, the new below ground station opened.
A signal box was located on Platform 2, at the Down end of the station, to control the road/tramway crossing. It was abolished on 2 January 2016, during the grade separation works.
The station is among sixteen others that are the site of eleven storey high communication towers, aimed to improve identification of trains around the network, and emergency management.Platforms & services
