East Richmond railway station, Melbourne

East Richmond is a railway station (station code: ERM) in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. It is located on the Lilydale, Belgrave, Glen Waverley, and Alamein lines, at Church and Adolph Streets in the suburb of Cremorne. Prior to 1867 it was called Church Street station on what was then the Melbourne to Hawthorn line, one of Melbourne's earliest. It is 4.3 km from Flinders Street Station, the center of the city's suburban railway network, and in Metcard ticketing Zone 1.

East Richmond station has two platforms, although four tracks run through it. Platform 1, for city bound services has a 1960s station building. Platform 2, for outbound services, has a Victorian era building stripped of most of its decoration. The station is not staffed and the ticket office and other facilities are locked.

Due to its location at the inner end of Melbourne's busiest group of railway lines a large number of services pass East Richmond although only a limited number stop, largely because of its proximity to Richmond station, a major interchange, a few hundred metres down Swan Street . Outbound services to Belgrave and Lilydale do not stop at East Richmond and only a small number of inbound services do. Most services to and from Blackburn and Ringwood, which are intermediate destinations on the Belgrave/Lilydale line do however. Alamein services, which only operate through East Richmond during weekday peaks, also stop. Most Glen Waverley trains also stop at the station and on weekends are the only trains to stop necessitating a change at Burnley for the Belgrave and Lilydale lines and an additional change at Camberwell for the Alamein line.
