It was 699 km (434 mi) from Central Station, Sydney and served the city of Grafton. It was opened on 6 November 1905 as the southern terminus of the original North Coast railway line. It was closed on 1 October 1976 when South Grafton became the city's main railway station.[1] Since 2005 the station in South Grafton is again known as Grafton Station
Although closed to passengers as the original station house burned down, the site remains in use as a goods yard.
