Diamond Creek is a railway station in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, located in the suburb of Diamond Creek, on the Hurstbridge railway line. It is in Metcard Zone 2.
Diamond Creek is unofficially a Host Station, due to Connex staff having to work the safeworking equipment.
Location

Facilities
The station consists of two side platforms. Platform 1 contains a large weatherboard building, while platform 2 contains a small shelter. A large Metcard machine is located at the entrance to platform 1, which is able to dispense most ticketing options available and also accept notes and coins.
