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.[1] Originally built with only one face, in 1944 the platform was converted to an island platform and the present station building constructed.[2]

Platforms & 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 NSW TrainLink's Hunter line services from Hamilton (Newcastle) and a stopping point for NSW TrainLink XPT services. There are five local services to/from Newcastle on weekdays, with three on Saturdays and two on Sundays.[3] Each day northbound XPT services operate to Grafton, Casino and Brisbane, with three southbound services operating to Sydney.[4]

Usually the XPTs use Platform 1, and the terminating services Platform 2, but these can be alternated for operational reasons.

2 terminating Endeavour/Hunter railcar services to/from Hamilton (Newcastle) (2-5 per day) Only 3 services to Hamilton[3]
