Ormond railway station is located on the Frankston line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the south-eastern Melbourne suburb of Ormond opening on 19 December 1881 as North Road, being renamed Ormond on 1 September 1897.[1]
In May 2014, the State Government announced a grade separation project to replace the North Road level crossing with a completion date of 2017. This will involve the station being rebuilt.[2]
