It is located 6.6 kilometres (4.1 mi) from Adelaide station, but is now closed, along with the workshop. Both platforms are 50 metres in length. The station was first closed in 2000, with all trains running express, and demolished in 2020, due to the Gawler line electrification project.
To the west of the station lies the Australian Rail Track Corporation Adelaide-Crystal Brook line.
