Drone footage of the Caulfield Metro Railway station. Filmed on 5 December 2025.
This station is the junction of the Frankston and Cranbourne/Pakenham (and beyond to Gippsland) rail lines.
Caulfield station is a Metro Trains Melbourne and V/Line railway station on the Pakenham, Cranbourne, Frankston, and Gippsland lines, which are part of the Melbourne rail network and Victoria's regional rail network. It serves the northern boundary of Caulfield East, a suburb of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
Opened in 1879 and rebuilt from 1913 to 1914, the station complex is listed on the Victorian Heritage Register and is noted as an example of Federation Free Style architecture. It is named after the nearby suburb of Caulfield, located southwest of the station.
The station consists of an island platform and two side platforms, all accessed by a pedestrian underpass. There are three principal station buildings located on the platforms, including a small brick building located on Platform 1, near the main platform building. This building was provided in 1974 and originally served as a ticket office for the Caulfield Racecourse, which is directly adjacent. The station complex also features a rare "horse platform" used when horses were delivered to the racecourse. The station is only partially accessible due to a steep access ramp.
The station connects to the Route 3 tram service and routes 624 and 900 bus services. The journey to Flinders Street railway station is approximately 10 kilometres and takes 19 minutes.
