Nunawading railway station is located on the Lilydale and Belgrave railway lines in Victoria, Australia, and serves the eastern Melbourne suburb of Nunawading. The station was called "Tunstall" when it opened on 4 June 1888, but was renamed "Nunawading" on 1 November 1945.[2]

As part of the grade separation project to replace the Springvale Road level crossing, the original ground-level station closed on 18 December 2009 and was replaced by a new station in a cutting west of Springvale Road, which opened on 11 January 2010.[3][4][5][6]

The concourse on the eastern side is linked to the platforms via an underpass beneath Springvale Road. Both concourses have stairs and lifts that provide access to the platforms.
