Emu Plains railway station is located in the western Sydney suburb of Emu Plains and also serves the surrounding suburbs of Emu Heights and Leonay. With two side platforms, it is located on the Western and Blue Mountains lines of the CityRail network. It is the terminus of the main branch of the Western line, though many trains terminate at the previous station of Penrith. Two sets of points at the eastern end of the station allow 'down' trains (heading away from Sydney) to terminate at either platform and return to the city.
