Operational rail facilities consist of a single running line, plus a headshunt and run round loop. There are no spring points, and access to the run round loop is controlled by ground frames, operated by the train crew. The station is not staffed, except on special operating days, and passengers purchase tickets from the guard.[3]
Passenger facilities consist of a single rail-level platform, a waiting shelter, and a local information notice board and map.
The station was fully remodelled in the late 1980s, with the single platform relocated from the eastern to the western side of the running line.
