Malmsbury Railway Station was constructed in 1862 by Robert Turnbull & Co, on the Melbourne-Echuca Line, for the Victorian Railways. It comprises a single storeyed, standard basalt station building, with an attached two storeyed residence and timber additions.
A basalt lamp room/toilet block adjoins. The verandah is timber posted and the platform wall is basalt. A timber-framed waiting shelter and van goods shelter are located on the down platform. A basalt and steel crane base remains, while the sidings have been removed.
The goods shed, situated adjacent to the station building, is a large basalt structure with a gabled slate roof.The large bluestone station building remains on the former Melbourne bound platform, and a collection of shelter sheds on the Bendigo side. The station is lightly used.
As part of the Victorian Regional Fast Rail project, this section of line was converted to single track. Both side platforms still remain in place, but only the former down platform (the one without the station building) still has track next to it.
Malmsbury is the only open railway station on the Bendigo line to have only one platform in use
