Wyong station was opened on 15 August 1887.[3] In 1912, the line was duplicated. In 1937, the eastern platform was converted to an island platform. A pair of passing loops were added south of the station in 1948. In the 1950s, a new bridge was built over Wyong Creek immediately south of the station, with the old railway bridge becoming part of the Pacific Highway.[4]
Between April 1982[5] and June 1984, Wyong was the northern extremity of the electrified network.[6] A brick building on Platforms 1 and 2 was replaced by the current structure in the 1990s.[7] On 1 November 1993, an upgraded footbridge with a new ticket office and lifts was opened by Minister for Transport Bruce Baird.[8]
Wyong has three platforms, one island with two faces and one side platform. It is serviced by NSW TrainLink Central Coast & Newcastle line services travelling from Sydney Central to Newcastle. Peak-hour services to and from Central and Blacktown via the North Shore line also terminate at Wyong.[9]
It is also serviced by NSW TrainLink Xplorer and XPT long-distance services from Sydney to Armidale, Moree, Grafton, Casino and Brisbane.[10][11]
