Meadowbank railway station is a suburban railway station located on the Main Northern line, serving the Sydney suburb of Meadowbank. It is served by Sydney Trains T9 Northern Line services.
Meadowbank station opened on 1 September 1887 as Meadow Bank, being renamed Meadowbank on 6 November 1927.[4]
An overhead road bridge and footbridge were opened in July 1908, to replace the level crossing previously located at the station. Several fatal accidents had occurred at the crossing, necessitating the grade separation.[5]
To the south of the station, the line crosses the Parramatta River via the John Whitton Bridge. This opened in May 1980 replacing the original iron lattice bridge.[6][7][8]
