In April 2014, the state government announced Epsom station would be constructed. It is serviced six times[3] on weekdays by extending some services that terminated at Bendigo.[4][5]

Disused stations Huntly, Bagshot, Wellsford, Goornong and Avonmore are located between Epsom and Elmore.

In 2020, the Victorian Government announces to propose to rebuild the new Goornong and Huntly railway station as part of the Regional Rail Revival project.
