Location

History

Mount Kuring-gai station opened on 5 October 1901 as a passing loop named Kuring-gai, and was originally located north of the present station site. On 1 August 1904, it was renamed Mount Kuring-gai, and rebuilt as the present station in 1909 when the Main Northern line was duplicated.^[3][4]

The station was the terminating point for some suburban services and had a signal box to facilitate these workings. It was removed in April 1988 resulting in all services continuing to Cowan, until 1992 when the CityRail suburban network was curtailed to Berowra.^[5]
