However it was later decided that junction would be at Northgate railway station and in 1897 it was renamed Banyo railway station. [1]

On 14 September 2012, a loaded semi-trailer was stuck on the level crossing at the station, when a northbound train collided with the vehicle, which caused it to be thrown into a southbound service. Rail services on the Shorncliffe railway line were disrupted for the rest of the day while the rail safety regulator investigated the collision. [2]
