Yarra Glen is the city-end terminus of the Healesville tourist railway.
The first station on the site was built in 1888-1889 when the railway line was extended from Lilydale to Healesville. The settlement had been previously named Burgoyne, but when the railway was extended, the decision was made to rename it Yarra Glen. Though Yarra Glen was a small settlement, its station was often used for supplying Melbourne with produce from nearby farms.
The station closed along with the Healesville line in 1980. It sat idle for some years, and suffered some major fire damage to the roof, however the station is being restored as part of the Yarra Valley Tourist Railway, which is based out of Healesville. It currently opens on weekends and public holidays.
