Coburg Train Station – Another line another level crossing removed

I have never been on the line that the Coburg station is on. I believe it is the Upfield line and is still north of the city. Where I live I am more north east from the city and this is more north. I actually don’t know how many different train lines there are. I know I’m on the Hurstbridge line, and if I catch a train from Clifton Hill into the city then I can also get on the Mernda train.

So this is another new station and the tracks have been elevated. I think for this line the tracks are elevated for the whole line, I could be wrong, but that is my understanding.

I don’t know about this station. I just think it looks too similar to the Bell Station, but maybe not as good. Interesting that both stations are on Bell Street but 3.6 km apart. Bell Street is a major road in Melbourne and if you live here or been here a few times you would know that it is a very busy street. It is one I like to avoid if I can.

Here are some of the photos.

We were delighted to see the sun when we got here, though it was very bright after all the rain. It was nice to have the sun, but still have the clouds in the sky.

This is the 5th station that I have photographed so far and I only have one more left from that day. I would like to get out to photograph more, but I don’t want to do that until after summer. Hopefully the hot weather will disappear soon.

I was thinking that after I have done all the stations, well these 6 anyway, I might post them all in one post and we can vote on which one we liked the best. What do you think?
