The Inner Circle Line by Jeff Atkinson

The Melbourne suburban rail line that disappeared.

This book tells the story of the development of Melbourne’s suburban rail lines, and in particular of the ill-conceived Inner Circle line that ran through the inner northern suburbs from 1888 until its final closure ninety years later. It tells of the political events that led to the line being built, the life and death incidents that occurred along the line when it was in operation, and after it had closed the struggle of a residents’ group to have the land and a station building converted into facilities for community use.
