Facilities

The station consists of a single concrete island platform located between the inner 'fast' lines on the quad track section of route between Marshgate Junction, Doncaster and Thorne Junction. It is unstaffed but there is a ticket machine near to the car park entrance. A single waiting shelter is the only structure on the platform apart from bench seating, timetable posters and customer information screens. Both platforms are fully accessible by means of a long inclined ramp from the main entrance on the road above.^[1]

The station provides an hourly service Eastbound to Hull during the daytime Monday to Saturday. Additionally there is usually 1 service per hour to Scunthorpe or Goole. Westbound service comprises two trains per hour to Doncaster.^[2]
