History

Genalta station opened as Belair Road.[2]

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.

gollark: I'm hoping much of the underpaid labour can be replaced with automation in the future, too.
gollark: Not really? If I could somehow make people not want it and skip any of the ethical issues related to that it'd be nice? But they do, and the system satisfies those values.
gollark: People are entirely free to *not* buy a new phone every 6 months and... mostly do... the phone market has been declining because of lengthening upgrade cycles. If people buy unreasonable amounts it's because *they want that*, though possibly because of advertising which is terrible.
