I've just seen this article which broadly deals with railway station closures in my state of Victoria in Australia, and more specifically in my central SW part of Victoria. There are a number of abandoned stations along the Ballarat - Geelong line where buildings are all of the same design and bluestone construction which will outlast us all.

That line still takes grain trains from the huge wheat and barley farms in the NW of Victoria to the port city of Geelong for export.

No passenger services run there any more.
