History

South Morang station operated until the closure of the line after Lalor Station in the 1950's, after the electrification of the line to Lalor, Epping station was then re-opened in the 1960's with the electrification of that section of the line. The remaining section of track from Epping to Whittlesea was then dismantled in the 1970's, with the former right-of-way remaining intact. All that remains of this station now is the platform mound.
Following the election of the Bracks Government in 1999 a promise was made to restore the service to South Morang. In May 2006, the situation was revised and will be built in 2021.
