History Euroa station was opened with the line, and the first permanent station building was erected in 1878. The platform was initially long, and was extended to in 1900. A second platform, -long, once existed at Euroa, against the goods shed wall. It was in use between 1880 and 1904, and permitted the crossing of two passenger trains. An iron footbridge linked the two platforms between 1900 and 1904.
The first lever frame for signals was provided in 1885, and was made part of the station building in 1929. The track layout was altered in 1931, remaining in that state until the 1970s, when it was rationalised. Two pedestrian subways, as well as the road overpass at Anderson Street to the south, were provided as part of the construction of the Albury–Melbourne standard gauge line in 1960.
As part of the North East Rail Revitalisation Project, a second platform was constructed on the existing standard gauge line, in conjunction with the standard gauge conversion of the broad gauge track. Work began in December 2008, and was completed in late 2009.Program of Works South Improvement AllianceNorth East rail project will bring local and national benefits Australian Rail Track Corporation 13 March 2009
As part of the Inland Rail project, the station is reconstructed to support double-stacked freight trains. Changes involve replacing the Anderson Street bridge with a vehicle underpass, relocating the eastern railway track to a new western track, a new western platform, and the construction of a new pedestrian underpass, station forecourt and car park. Construction commenced in March 2025 and is ongoing.
Now-closed stations at Creighton, Longwood, Locksley and Monea were located between Euroa and Avenel, while the former Balmattum station was located between Euroa and Violet Town.
