History
Merrylands station opened on 6 July 1878.

In 1969, the Merrylands Road level crossing to the south of the station was replaced by the Mombri Street overpass to the north. In 1972, the signal box at Merrylands closed with operations transferred to Granville signal box. On 2 November 1996, the Merrylands to Harris Park Y-Link opened allowing direct train operation between these two stations by what is now known as the Cumberland Line.

The station since underwent substantial renovations which were concluded by early 2007. Until at least the mid-1990s, sidings existed to the north-west of the station to serve a flour mill.

In December 2017, construction began to install 98 new car spaces among two locations at Merrylands as part of the Transport Access Program. Construction finished in August 2018.

The station is served by T2 Leppington and T5 Cumberland services, usually at a frequency of 6 trains per hour during the offpeak.
