Tecoma railway station, Melbourne
Tecoma (station code: TCM) is an unmanned railway station on the Belgrave line in Melbourne, Australia. It is located in Metcard ticketing Zone 3 and has 1 platform.
The station was initially part of a narrow gauge railway operated by the Victorian Railways that extended from Upper Ferntree Gully to Gembrook that was closed in the 1950s. The Puffing Billy was formed to run a tourist service on the remaining usable section of track. This continued for four years until the track from Upper Ferntree Gully to Belgrave was converted to broad gauge and electrified by the Victorian Railways.
