Wyong railway station is a heritage-listed railway station located on the Main Northern line in New South Wales, Australia. It serves the northern Central Coast town of Wyong.

History

Wyong station in 1954. The crowd is awaiting the arrival of Queen Elizabeth II.

Wyong station was opened on 15 August 1887. ^[3] In 1912, the line was duplicated. In 1937, the eastern platform was converted to an island platform. A pair of passing loops were added south of the station in 1948. In the 1950s, a new bridge was built over Wyong Creek immediately south of the station, with the old railway bridge becoming part of the Pacific Highway. ^[4]

Between April 1982 ^[5] and June 1984, Wyong was the northern extremity of the electrified network. ^[6] A brick building on Platforms 1 and 2 was replaced by the current structure in the 1990s. ^[7] On 1 November 1993, an upgraded footbridge with a new ticket office and lifts was opened by Minister for Transport Bruce Baird. ^[8]
