The basic station is one platform, which can accommodate 5 coaches, built onto the side of the museum of the railway. Opposite the station, there is a single siding for storage of bitumen tanks, and one run-round loop. There is very little on the actual station, however there are a couple of plant pots, benches and information displays.[1]

Services from the station are hourly, and they go to the Strand Road Crossing. These services are only available during the railway operating season and on special events.[2]
