Menangle railway station is a heritage-listed railway station located on the Main Southern line in the south-western Sydney settlement of Menangle, in the Wollondilly Shire local government area of New South Wales, Australia. The station opened on 1 July 1863.[4] [5] The property was added to the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 2 April 1999.[6]
Menangle has two side platforms and is served by NSW TrainLink Southern Highlands Line trains travelling between Campbelltown and Moss Vale, with two weekend morning services to Sydney Central and limited evening services to Goulburn.
The station complex comprises a Type 1 station building and residence, erected in 1863. The original single brick-faced platform is now on the Sydney-bound track. A brick WC block, also erected in 1863, was removed pre-2000.[6]
Transit Systems operates two bus routes via Menangle station, under contract to Transport for NSW:
Menangle station group is one of the earliest station complexes to survive in the state. It is a combination station building and residence which has had substantial additions. Although the second platform and building have been demolished for a new platform the remaining up buildings and platform are of very high significance in the development of railway buildings. Significant features of this building are its lack of awning to the platform, the unusual planning of the building with detached wings, room for porters, no waiting room and the asymmetrical elevations. The remaining structures are of national significance in conjunction with the railway underbridge listed separately.[6]
