Well, this is basically the railway station at the end of the South Morang Line. There probably…read moreisn't all that much that one can actually say about a railway station, especially since all you generally do here is get on, or get off, a train (though if you are young you might end up hanging around with your friends, and then getting chased off by a security guard). Okay, it is a little more than just a railway station as it also has a bus station, and a snackbar (though it isn't one of those trendy inner-city type places so don't expect rip-roaringly good coffee that you might find at, say, Northcote). Also the Plenty Valley Shopping centre is also a short walk from the station as well (not that I go there all that much). Oh, they also have ticket gates so much sure that your Myki Card has been touched on or you may find yourself in a bit of a pickle.

This station has been completely refurbished, but that was done a number of years back before I…read moreactually moved to Melbourne, so I don't actually know, or remember, what the original station looked like. However this one is now much better, and not only has a decent waiting room, but also has restrooms, as well as being staffed. Oh, and it is also quite accessible.

Yeah, I'm sure if you live in Melbourne you will be familiar with this station, and with this…read morelocation. I have ended up here a couple of times, namely because it is a major interchange station where you can not only catch the suburban trains but also the V/Line and even the train to Sydney (which runs twice a day, though you can't catch it into Melbourne, which is a shame). Yeah, basically it is one of those places that you should only go to if you really need to go to it.

Set opposite the massive shopping centre, Broadmeadows Train station is a gateway for those in the…read morenorth. Serviced by both the Craigieburn and Broadmeadows lines, metro trains operate at least every ten minutes from here during the week; and between 10-15 minutes on weekends making it one of the better stations in regards to frequency. The other great thing about this station is that V Line trains run through, and stop here. So if you're coming to Melbourne from the country and would prefer to hop off before you get to Southern Cross, Broady's your port of call. My sister comes from North Vic regularly to visit me on the train, and it's so much easier to meet her and drop her off at Broady from my place not even 15 minutes down the road. However, Broadmeadows is well known for its high crime rates and youth unemployment, making the train station a popular hangout for unsavoury types. Because of this I always feel a little uneasy, but if you plan you're travel for during the day and try to get there so you don't have to wait around too long, it's not so bad. Being a premium station Broadmeadows is manned through the Metro and V Line ticketing office so there is a good sense of security whilst the office is open.

This is actually quite a new station - sort of. There used to be a station here ages ago, back when…read morethe railway line when all the way up to Whittlesea, but as governments are prone to do, they decided to rip it up. Not surprisingly, they have since laid it back down again, and built some new stations, and this is one of them. Look, it certainly serves its purpose, and is also quite large, and even has some good facilities, something that many of the newer, and revamped, stations are taking on board. Yeah, this station certainly does work, and it is much better than others that I have encountered.

I've been told that I should probably be careful up around this station, but then again when I was…read morehere nothing really untoward actually happened to me. Then again, I didn't actually hang around all that long, so I guess there is that. This is basically an end of the line station, and honestly, there really isn't all that much to see here, station or otherwise. Sure, there is a pub next door, but it isn't a particularly good one.

Okay, this might work if it happened to be located in some hipster part of Melbourne, but it isn't - it's Craigieburn, which basically means that it really appears as if the railway station was done on the cheap. In another sense, it sort of feels as if it was supposed to be temporary, but ended up becoming permanent. Still, at least it has restrooms.

Well, brutalism is a form of architecture that I have discovered that seems to describe those…read moreplaces where form follows function, and that basically means that there is really nothing all that fancy about the place. This station certainly does fit that description. Mind you, as a station it doesn't really impress me all that much, and when I was here there weren't all that many trains passing by anyway. Honestly, it does serve it's purpose, but that is basically about it.
