Dulwich Hill railway station is a heritage-listed railway station located on the Bankstown line, serving the Sydney suburb of Dulwich Hill.

History

Dulwich Hill station opened on 1 February 1895 as Wardell Road when the Bankstown line opened from Sydenham to Belmore. It was renamed Dulwich Hill on 1 July 1920. To the north of the station, lie two tracks that are part of the Metropolitan Goods line. Opposite the platform lay a triangular junction that connected the Metropolitan Goods line to a branch to Rozelle. This was removed in October 2012 for the conversion of the Rozelle line to light rail. The station has two platforms in an island platform configuration, the only station on the section running parallel to the goods line not to be converted to side platforms. The station buildings date from 1935. In October 2023, a new western concourse opened, providing lift access and transfer to the Light Rail stop. The station closed on 30 September 2024 as part of works to convert the Bankstown line to Sydney Metro.
