Glen Innes railway station is a closed station located on the Main Northern line in New South Wales, Australia. It served the town of Glen Innes, opening on 19 August 1884 when the line was extended from Armidale. It was the terminus of the line until it was extended to Tenterfield on 1 September 1886.[1] It has one platform with two loops.
The line closed north of Glen Innes on 22 October 1989.[2][3]
The last train to regularly service Glen Innes was the overnight Northern Mail which ceased in November 1988.[4] The Northern Tablelands Express provided a daylight service to Glen Innes until truncated in October 1985 to Armidale.[5] The line to Glen Innes was still open in July 1992 when diesel locomotive 4499 operated a crew route learning service.[6]
