Location

North Strathfield railway station is asuburbanrailway station located on theMain North line, serving theSydney suburb ofNorth Strathfield. It is served bySydney TrainsT9 Northern Line services.

TheHomebush toHornsby section of theMain North railway line was first opened in 1886, and a connection from the Main North railway line toStrathfield to the east was subsequently added. North Strathfield station was added to the line much later: it opened on 9 June 1918 as an island platform with two faces. In 1924, a third platform was added on the western side.^[3][4] Added to the line much later, it is now the first station on theMain Northern line after it branches from theMain Suburban line atStrathfield.

Today, the primary, eastern, connection between the Main Northern and Main Suburban lines is from North Strathfield and Strathfield, but the single track western connection between North Strathfield and Homebush still exists. This connection is mainly used by out of service or freight trains but was occasionally used by passenger trains travelling toOlympic Park station during trackwork or for major events atSydney Olympic Park.

To the east of the station lay an out of use passing loop, but in June 2015 was recommissioned as part of the construction of adive south of the station as part of theNorthern Sydney Freight Corridor project.^[5][6][7][8]

As part of theSydney Metro West project, a further two underground platforms will be built.^[9][10][11]

As part of the accesbility projects, the station was upgraded and given lifts in November 2019.^[12]
