History

While the Great Western Railway was built through the Blue Mountains in 1867, it was originally established in the area as Karabar platform.[4] After a name change a new platform was built in 1918.[5] This platform was later destroyed as a result of bush fire in 1951 and was later rebuilt.[6]

A pedestrian bridge was built in 1917 to provide access to the station and in 1990 alterations were made.[6]

The station celebrated its 100th anniversary on 9 March 2018.[7]
