Toongabbie is a railway station on the North Shore, Northern & Western Line of the Sydney Trains network. It serves a well established residential area in the suburb of Toongabbie.
It has four tracks, and the tracks are paired by direction. This means that all trains to the city (or Campbelltown) leave from the same island platform, so if the train happens to travel on the unexpected track, it is a simple thing to walk over to the other platform.
Toongabbie is the 94th most patronised railway station in Sydney (out of a total of 176 stations), with an average of 2450 passengers boarding per day.
