Lynbrook railway station is located on the Cranbourne line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the south-eastern Melbourne suburb of Lynbrook, and it opened on 22 April 2012.[1][2]

Construction started in early October 2010. Completion was expected in 2011, however due to underbudgeting for electricity for the railway station, the project stalled, delaying the completion of the station.[3][4]

Platforms and services[]

Platform 1:

It is planned to connect the Cranbourne line to the Sunbury line, through the new Metro Tunnel, in late 2025.
