PASSENGER rail services could return to Stawell under a $51.2 million election commitment from the Victorian Liberals and Nationals, more than three decades after regular Victorian Government passenger services were withdrawn. The Coalition has promised to restore passenger rail services between Dimboola and Ararat by mid-2029 if elected next month, with trains stopping at Horsham, Murtoa and Stawell.
