Location

Dungog railway station is located on the North Coast line in New South Wales, Australia. It serves the town of Dungog opening on 14 August 1911. ^[3] Originally built with only one face, in 1944 the platform was converted to an island platform and the present station building constructed. ^[4]

Platforms and services

Dungog has an island platform with two faces. It also has a passing loop to the east of the station. It is the terminating point for Hunter Line services from Newcastle and a stopping point for NSW TrainLink XPT services. There are five local services to/from Newcastle on weekdays, with three per day on weekends and public holidays. ^[5] Each day northbound XPT services operate to Casino and Brisbane, with two southbound services operating to Sydney. ^[6] This station is a request stop for the southbound Casino XPT, so this service stops here only if passengers booked to board/alight here.
