Awaba railway station is located on the Main Northern line in New South Wales, Australia. It serves the City of Lake Macquarie town of Awaba opening on 15 August 1887.[3]
In April 1993, the original weatherboard station building on the western platform was damaged in a fire and later demolished.[4] [5] It was replaced by the present lighter-weight structure.
Until its formal closure in December 1989, Awaba was the junction for the line to Wangi Power Station, the remnants of which remain behind Platform 1.[6] North of the station are two passing loops, although the northbound one has now been disconnected.
Awaba has two side platforms. It is serviced by NSW TrainLink Central Coast & Newcastle Line services travelling from Sydney Central to Newcastle.
