Merri railway station is located on the Mernda line, in Victoria, Australia. It serves the north-eastern Melbourne suburb of Northcote. It opened on 8 October 1889 as Northcote, being renamed Merri on 10 December 1906.The original conception of the station was to act as a major junction in a planned North Suburban Railway System. The Argus reported in 1887 that; The Station at Union-street, as shown on our plan, must necessarily be the most important in the Northern System, as lines branch from this point to Preston and Whittlesea on the north ; Heidelberg, Kew, &.c., on the east; Carlton, Royal-park, North Melbourne, and Spencer-street on the south-west; Fitzroy, East Melbourne, and Flinders-street on the south; and if the alternative route is adopted, Clifton-hill, Collingwood, Richmond, and Flinders street on the south east., while land sale plans advertised the upcoming construction of the Grand Central Junction Station.The station building was rebuilt in 1910, to accommodate an increased population in the area.The nearby level crossing at Charles Street had hand operated gates until 1924, when they were replaced with interlocked gates, operated from the nearby signal box, following several serious traffic accidents. These gates were replaced with boom barriers in 1986.During October 1987, the double line block system between Merri - Northcote was abolished, and replaced with three positioning signalling, with all two position signals between Merri and Thornbury also abolished.
