Middle Footscray railway station is a commuter railway station on the Sunbury line, which is part of the Melbourne railway network. It serves the western suburb of Footscray, in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Middle Footscray station is a ground-level unstaffed station, featuring an island platform. It opened on 10 December 1906, with the current station provided in 1927.
Two dual gauge goods tracks run north of the station, linking the Port of Melbourne and other freight terminals to the rest of the state. Since 1962, those tracks have formed part of the Melbourne – Sydney standard gauge line and, since 1995, have also formed part of the Melbourne – Adelaide standard gauge line. Two Regional Rail Link tracks run south of the station.




History



In 1927, the station was reconstructed about 160 metres west of its original location, to allow for the building of the South Kensington – West Footscray goods line.
