Harcourt is a closed station located on the Bendigo line. It served the township of Harcourt and was closed to passenger traffic on 4 October 1981, as part of the New Deal timetable for country passengers.[1]
A 10-ton crane at the station was abolished in 1973.[2]
The station building on the former down platform housed the studios of Goldfields Community Access Radio (3CCC) from 1982 to 2006.[3]
