Berry railway station

Berry is a station located on the Bomaderry branch of the South Coast Line. The station consists of 1 platform, with a small carpark off Station Road. There are dead-end sidings on both sides of the main line.

History
The station opened on 2 June 1893 with the extension of the line from North Kiama (now Bombo) to Bomaderry. It was built with 4 tracks: the stock siding, main line, passing loop and goods siding (which was used by the Berry Co-operative Dairy Society's factory). The passing loop was removed in 1895 due to low traffic, but restored in 1913. With the decline of goods traffic, the passing loop and especially the goods siding fell into disuse. Around 2009, with the Wharf Rd level crossing upgrade, the passing loop was truncated at the up end, making it a siding, and the goods siding was removed.

Berry was originally a train staff exchange point. Drivers would swap Kiama - Berry and Berry - Bomaderry staffs here with the station staff. This stopped in 2014 with the introduction of single colour light signalling on the line.

Platforms and Services
Berry is served by NSW TrainLink South Coast services. Early morning and late night services are replaced by buses.The stock siding is used once a day to cross a up passenger and down freight service. The passenger service reverses into the stock siding to allow the freight train to pass. In the past, two passenger services have also crossed at Berry, however this is no longer required as only one train is currently used for the Kiama-Bomaderry service.
