Location

Gardiner station is a railway station operated by Metro Trains Melbourne on the Glen Waverley line, part of the Melbourne rail network. It serves Glen Iris, a suburb of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. The station opened on 24 March 1890, named after pastoralist John Gardiner, who had settled near the junction of the Yarra River and Gardiners Creek in 1836.

The station consists of two side platforms accessed by a pedestrian concourse. There is one principal station building located on the concourse which serves as bike parking space and PSO facilities. This building is single story and opened in 2016 as part of a station rebuild. The station is fully accessible as there are DDA compliant lifts and access ramps provided.

The station connects to the route 72 tram service. The journey to Southern Cross railway station in central Melbourne is approximately 10.61 kilometres (6.59 mi) and takes 25 minutes.
