Gowrie railway station is located on the Upfield line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the northern Melbourne suburbs of Fawkner and Glenroy. Following the reinstatement of a passenger service on the Fawkner-Somerton rail line in March 1928, Rail Motor Stopping Place 21 was opened at the location on 16 October 1928. It closed when the passenger service ceased on 5 May 1956. On 17 May 1965 Gowrie station opened on what was by then the Upfield line.[1] It was upgraded to a Premium station in 1998.[2]
