It’s been 68 years since a train has stopped at the Victoria railway station of Huntly, but as of last weekend that has been reset. Two new stations, Huntly and Raywood, have opened near Bendigo, giving residents the chance to catch trains from their local community rather than travelling to Bendigo station.
“This is a historic day—decades after trains last departed Huntly and Raywood, we’re proud to bring services back to these growing communities,” said Minister for Transport Infrastructure and Member for Bendigo East Jacinta Allan.
The new station openings form part of the Bendigo Metro 3 project, which has now delivered three new stations to Bendigo, including Goornong which opened in late 2021.
18 services a week will now stop at Huntly Station on the Echuca Line and 28 services a week will stop at Raywood Station on the Swan Hill Line.
