Lyndhurst (b/w Cranbourne-Dandenong) is one. Baxter (Stony
Point-Frankston) would be another. Both of these stations
would not have seen Electric services.

Narre Warren was recently (2/3 years?) closed/demolished
after a new platform was reconstructed, also was it Bornonia
that also moved on the Belgrave line? Technically these
stations still exist, just not in their original place.
