Often called Carnegie Station, not to be confused with Carnegie Station a pastoral lease in Western Australia
Carnegie railway station is located on the Pakenham and Cranbourne lines in Victoria, Australia. It serves the south-eastern Melbourne suburb of Carnegie opening on 14 May 1879 as Rosstown, being renamed Carnegie on 1 May 1909.[1]
Boom barriers replaced interlocked gates at the Koornang Road level crossing in 1967.[2]
In March 2014, the Level Crossing Removal Authority announced a grade separation project to replace the Koornang Road level crossing immediately to the west of the station. This will include rebuilding the station.[3]
