History
Opened 1888

Hillside is a closed railway station located in the town of Hillside, on the Bairnsdale railway line in Victoria, Australia. It was 262 km from Southern Cross station. Although the station has been demolished, a siding is located at the station, which was last used by Freight Australia for log trains prior to the complete line to Bairnsdale reopening. It also served for many years, with most of this infrastructure remaining, as a siding where bitumen was transported via rail for storage and on-distribution for road surfacing works in eastern Victoria.
