Glenfield railway station is a junction station on the South line where the East Hills Line rejoins. It serves the suburb of Glenfield. It has one side platform and an island platform. Platform 1 is a turnback for terminating trains via Liverpool. It has no Easy Access.

History

The station opened in 1869, about ten years after the opening of the Main South Line. The initial platform was located north of the current station, and was moved south to its current position in 1891.cite web| work=Campbelltown City Council | title=History of Glenfield| url=http://www.campbelltown.nsw.gov.au/default.asp?iDocId=2108&iSubCatID=1376&iNavCatID=322| accessdate=25 January | accessyear=2007] Originally the station consisted of two side platforms. The role of Glenfield changed significantly with the opening of the East Hills- Glenfield extension of the East Hills line in 1987, which joins the Main South line just north of Glenfield station. The platform buildings were substantially redeveloped at this time. A goods-only track was opened at the west of the station in 1995 as part of the "Glenfield- Ingleburn passing loop". [Rogers, D. "The Glenfield- Ingleburn Passing Loop Project". Railway Digest, August 1994. ARHS (NSW Division).] It is proposed that this track will form part of the Southern Sydney Freight Line. [ [http://www.ssfl.artc.com.au Southern Sydney Freight Line website] , accessed 27 August 2007.] In 1996, Glenfield gained an extra platform (the current platform 1) with the conversion of a side platform to an island platform associated with the Y-link works which created the Cumberland Line. Glenfield will be further redeveloped and expanded with the opening of the South-West rail link to Leppington in 2012cite web| work=TIDC | title=South West Rail Link| url=http://www.tidc.nsw.gov.au/Documents/936_PA2.pdf| accessdate=25 January | accessyear=2007] , with the addition of a fourth platform and the relocation of the station northwards.
