Jolimont Workshops

Opened in 1917 and dedicated to the maintenance and repair of electric multiple units and locomotives, it was the first part of the yard to be closed and relocated, with demolition completed in 1994.

This depot had replaced a small engine shed located east of the station of the same name and built in 1859 by the Melbourne and Suburban Railway Company.

[4] The workshops had a main carshed, with tracks leading into it at both the east (Richmond) and west (Flinders Street) ends.

[12] Track and overhead was removed by November 1993, with demolition of the workshops approved in May 1994,[14] and the inspection and paint shops demolished by August 1994.

[15] The land was used to expand the Melbourne Park tennis centre, with the opening of additional outside courts to the north of Rod Laver Arena.
