PASSENGERS on the Shepparton Line, take note! From October 1 to November 24, your usual train commute will be replaced by coach services. This temporary shift is due to maintenance works and upgrades on the line.
The coaches, offering express, semi-express, and all-stations services, will cover different segments of the journey. Some coaches may depart earlier than the regular train times, so it’s crucial to check the temporary timetable before you travel. Please note, these replacement services will not stop at Essendon Station.
Travelling by coach will add approximately 60 minutes to your journey, so plan your schedules accordingly. Remember, the coaches have limited space for bicycles, and no pets or hot food/liquids are allowed.
Ensure you have a valid myki or paper ticket for all V/Line replacement coach services. In Melbourne, coaches will arrive and depart from the Southern Cross Station coach terminal on Spencer Street. For those with accessibility needs, please call 1800 800 007 before your journey. Stay informed by visiting the V/Line website.
