History
Normanhurst station opened on 21 November 1895 as Hornsby. On 1 May 1898, it was renamed Normanhurst to avoid confusion with the present day Hornsby station, then known as Hornsby Junction.[3]
On 5 February 1923 a fire occurred on Platform 2, severely damaging the platform. However, it was extinguished before spreading further.[4]
The station was upgraded during 2023 as part of the Transport Access Program, a NSW Government initiative planning to improve accessibility on the Sydney Trains network.[5]
