A former freight yard originally sat opposite of the station, while a branch line into HMAS Cerberus is located at the Up end of the station, past the level crossing.
Flashing lights were provided at the Naval Base Road level crossing in 1974.[2] Boom barriers were added to the level crossing in 2011.[3]
The former station building was replaced with the current passenger shelters in February 1986.[4]
