To the north of the station, lie two tracks that are part of the Metropolitan Goods line. The westbound line has a platform face, this was taken out of use when the Metropolitan Goods line was built in 1915.[4]
The station was upgraded and received lifts and tactile indicators in 2023 in preparation for the line's conversion to Sydney Metro in 2025(Now delayed to March–April 2026) which commenced on 30 September 2024.
