Wickham railway station is a former railway station that opened on 2 September 1936. It was located in Wickham, a suburb in the Newcastle area. The station was serviced by intercity services to the Central Coast and Sydney Central and diesel railcar services to the Hunter Valley.
The station was closed in December 2014 for the construction of Newcastle Light Rail. It was demolished and replaced by Newcastle Interchange, located on the opposite side of the main road. The site is now a stabling yard for the light rail line.
Platforms and Services[]
The station had two side platforms, only four carriages long. Passengers on longer trains were required to use the rear 4 cars. The station generally received two Hunter line services (usually to and from Telarah) each way per hour, one Morisset local service each way per hour and one Sydney service each way per hour. Additional services operated during peak hour.
