The station complex consists of a timber station building on the northbound platform (c. 1915) and another timber station building of an initial island side building design (c. 1910) with brick-faced platforms. It also contains acorrugated iron former toilet and shed (c. 1910), timberskillion roofed signal box (1914) and timber parcels office, all situated on the platforms, and a 30'x15' corrugated iron goods shed of a side shed design.[4]
Bundanoon station and yard group is an excellent example of an early 20th century station complex with remnants of the early period of construction including the unusual and rare small goods shed. The original buildings for a small country location were expanded to take advantage of the holiday market in the early years of the century. The length of platforms indicate the relative importance of the station and the need for longer distance trains to stop here. The location of the site at a major intersection in the village of Bundanoon makes it an important visual element in the historic townscape that contributes significantly to the visual importance of the town. All of the listed elements contribute to the group and give a clear indication of the operation and style of ac.1913 station group.[4]
Bundanoon railway station was listed on theNew South Wales State Heritage Register on 2 April 1999.[4]
