Hughesdale railway station is located on the Cranbourne and Pakenham lines in Victoria, Australia. It serves the south-eastern Melbourne suburb of Hughesdale, and opened on 28 February 1925.[1]
The station and suburb were named in honour of James Vincent Hughes, mayor of Oakleigh from 1924 to 1925 who, with the Poath Road Railway Station League, lobbied heavily for a new station for the area. Before the station was built, Hughesdale was the site of the junctions of both the Outer Circle and Rosstown railway lines with the Dandenong/Gippsland line.
