History
editThis section needs expansion. You can help by adding to it. (September 2017) |
Genalta station opened as Belair Road.[2][when?]
In 1995, the eastern side platform was closed when the inbound line was converted to standard gauge as part of the One Nation Adelaide-Melbourne line gauge conversion project. During the late 1990s/early 2000s, the original down shelter was replaced with the current shelter.
