During 2017 the stations of Carnegie, Murrumbeena and Hughesdale and their familiar landscapes were demolished to make way for a new elevated railway. This book by Glen Eira Historical Society covers the history of these stations and the bookend stations of Caulfield and Oakleigh along with the communities they served. It tells the story of the Springvale cemetery train and includes some train trivia.
Over 40 personal stories and memories are captured here and bring this local history to life.

Brilliant book detailing the history of my station and it’s surrounds. It has made me look at these places differently, with a deeper understanding of their rich history.
