Red and yellow brick historic Flinders Street Railway Station with a dome and series of clocks.

Flinders Street Railway Station

  • Heritage listed
  • Landmark

Flinders Street Station is Australia’s oldest train station, and with its prominent green copper dome, distinctive yellow facade, arched entrance, tower, and clocks, it is one of Melbourne's most recognisable landmarks.

The station was completed in 1910, and the upper floors were purpose-built to house a library, gym, and lecture hall, later used as a ballroom. Its 708-metre main platform is the fourth longest railway platform in the world.

Today, heritage-listed Flinders Street Station is the one of the busiest suburban railway stations in the Southern Hemisphere, with over 1500 trains and 110,000 commuters passing through each day.

For information related to train arrival and departure times, access, timetables, platforms, fares and tickets, phone Metlink on 131 638.
