The original Epsom station opened on 19 September 1864 as Epsom and Huntly. [2] It was renamed Epsom Siding on 22 May 1882, and was renamed Epsom on 1 October 1889.

In April 2014, the Victorian Government announced that a new Epsom station would be constructed. [4] [5] It is serviced six times on weekdays, by extending some services that formerly terminated at Bendigo. [6]
