Premium station






A premium station is a category of railway station on Melbourne's railway network, operated by Metro Trains Melbourne. In terms of station standards, a premium station is a high standard station has better staffing and facilities than standard stations. Of the 207 stations in Melbourne's railway network, there are 82 premium stations, in addition to the five City Loop stations.


Although plans for the premium station program were unveiled in 1991 (under the guise of 'Safe Stations'),[1] the program was commenced in 1994 by the Public Transport Corporation,[2] with Mount Waverley being the first station given premium status.[3][4] By the end of 1995 the number of staffed stations increased from 35 to 51.[5] Further stations will be upgraded to premium status in the future.
