About Melbourne Central Station 

The Melbourne Central railway station, or simply Central Station, is one of five stations on the City Loop surrounding the Melbourne Central Business District (CBD). Part of the city’s suburban railway network, the underground station is located on the northern side of the CBD, beneath La Trobe Street and between the streets of Elizabeth and Swanston. The station feeds into Flinders Street, which is the primary metro network station in Melbourne, as well as Southern Cross, the main regional terminus of the city. Central Station is a Metabolist style-inspired station that was designed by Japanese architect Kisho Kurokawa. The total cost of the station’s construction was estimated at around $1.2 billion.

Central Station was named after the Melbourne Central Shopping Centre, a premier shopping hub and office situated right above the station. The presence of this complex has made Central Station one of the busiest stations in the city of Melbourne, with millions of passengers coming to and leaving from the station every year. As its name suggests, the station has a central and strategic location within the city. It is close to several important landmarks and establishments, such as the State Library of Victoria and the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT) University. 

Fun fact: The station used to have a Marionette Watch, which was given by Seiko as a gift to the Melburnians. However, it was taken down during the station’s renovations and has not been re-attached since.
