History

John Lysaght commenced operations in 1918, and began manufacturing galvanised steel at Spring Hill in 1936. As the Port Kembla branch line, which opened in 1916, cut through the Lysaght site, a station was established in 1938 to cater to the company's workforce. The station has minimal facilities beyond its original skillion-roofed waiting shed and a 1986 pedestrian footbridge.
