Villawood station opened on 8 October 1924 when the Main South line was extended from Regents Park to Cabramatta.[3][4]
To the south of the station lies the Southern Sydney Freight Line that opened in January 2013.
Historically, Villawood was served by services from the city and Lidcombe operating to Liverpool. This changed in the early 2000s, when most services to Liverpool were altered to operate via Bankstown. Today Villawood is served by T3 Bankstown line services terminating at Liverpool.
