Trains at Kensington railway station

In this video I head over to Kensington railway station. Kensington railway station is located on the Craigieburn line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the northern Melbourne suburb of Kensington, and it opened on 1 November 1860. The station building on Platform 1 was constructed in 1886. Special services to Flemington Racecourse and Showgrounds stations pass through the station, but do not stop, with signs on Platform 2 advising passengers of this. The gates at the Macaulay Road level crossing were replaced by boom barriers in 1966. The signal box is located at the Up end of the station, just past the level crossing. A siding is also located at the Up end, used for the nearby grain silos. Now from 2022 metro is in control of Kensington station and with the silos now owned by SSR running weekly grains head into the sidings for the day or night. further up the line is Seymour line where V/line runs daily through Kensington and the other stations expressing to Southern Cross Station.
