Overview

A locomotive depot previously operated north of the station. Today, it is the home of the Seymour Railway Heritage Centre, and is still used to stable V/Line trains. The station also had a goods yard opposite the main passenger platform. North of Seymour, the Tocumwal line branches off towards Shepparton.
History
The railway to Seymour officially opened on 20 November 1872. Because the bridge over the Goulburn River was not finished, the line from Essendon station had opened on 18 April 1872 to a temporary terminus at School House Lane.
Mangalore station, now demolished, was located north of Seymour, at the junction of the North East and Tocumwal lines. School House Lane / Dysart Sidings / Goulburn Junction was located between Seymour and Tallarook stations.
