Gosford Railway Station is a major station located in Gosford, on the Central Coast of New South Wales, on the Main North railway line. The station is served by NSW TrainLink intercity and regional train services.

History[]

Gosford Railway Station was opened officially on 15 August 1887. The coming of the railway marked the beginning of a new era for the district which had depended beforehand on water transport for its goods. The line was then extended, but it was not possible to go through to Sydney entirely by rail until the Hawkesbury River Bridge was opened in 1889. From 1995 to 2006 a CountryLink travel agency was located at the station.

Upgrade[]

Gosford underwent an upgrade in which two new commuter car parks were constructed on Mann Street, Gosford, to provide 86 additional commuter parking spaces in close proximity to Gosford Station. The upgrade commenced in January 2015 and was completed in September of the same year.[1]

Platforms and Services[]

The station has three platforms, including one for terminating intercity trains from Sydney. The three platforms are bi-directional. Because the track centres on the double track between platforms 1 and 2 (dating from 1887) are still so narrow, and trains now a little bit wider, signals are now interlocked to prevent trains using both platforms 1 and 2 at the same time. There are also stabling yards located just north and south of the station. A small cafe is located on the island platform, underneath the stairs.

The station receives 2 Central Coast line services in each direction during the weekday off-peak, with more during the peak and less on weekends. The third terminating platform is brought into use during the peak and at night. All express trains stop at Gosford.

It is also served by 4 NSW TrainLink North Coast and North Western regional services per day in each direction.
