Trivia[]
- This station was shown in a signalling board sneak peek on the 28th of November, 2019.
- This is the second station to be near a stadium, with the first one being Stepford United Football Club.
- As of the V1.4 update, Platforms 2 and 3 are unused for unknown reason. They are the Stepford Express passing platforms, making this station part of a 6-way tie between Whitney Green, Greenslade, Hampton Hargate, Water Newton, this station, and Millcastle for the most unused platforms of any station at two.
- Of the nine routes that run through this station, only three of them (R025, R038 and R040) call here, making this station a very limited-stop station.
- Players can walk from this station to Millcastle.
- The farthest station you can get from this station on one train before requiring to change to another is St Helens Bridge.
- Although Platforms 2 and 3 remain unused, the non-stop platform warning announcements for Stepford Express trains passing through the station are still sounded. The same applies to Platforms 2 and 3 at Millcastle.
- Stepford Express might have been intended to stop here, as well as Millcastle as there are platforms at both stations, and on-board announcements for the operator here. However, there are no announcements for Stepford Express at Millcastle.

- This station's name is the longest out of any other two-word-long station on the entire network, being twenty letters long.
