Trivia

There was a glitch upon release of V1.6 that allowed Airlink trains that used Platform 6 to be rerouted onto the Waterline bridge, and into Morganstown Docks.
Platform 6 is rarely used for stopping or skipping Airlink trains, however it is used for Waterline shuttle trains coming from the Morganstown Siding.
This station is operated and managed by Transport For Stepford.
This station has lettered platforms like Benton and Newry.
The rails at Platforms 1 and 2 extend noticeably beyond the buffers.
During parts of late 2019, the platform announcements were glitched when the name is said due to a corrupt sound file. They were fixed in the Five Million Update. This is also the same as New Harrow and Berrily.
Despite being a large station, there were no CIS boards before V1.4.1, the same can be said for Berrily, except they added these in an update before V1.4.1. They added these in V1.4.1 as well as the ability to dispatch.
There is a siding just east of the station, which leads to Platform 6, used by Waterline and Airlink.
There used to be a part of the station called Morganstown High Level, which was just 2 elevated platforms with no connections to Morganstown, but had a link to Morganstown Docks. However, it was replaced by Platforms 5A and 5B, and the original platforms were demolished.
There is Banner Repeater at Platform 6, alongside an OFF indicator. Other stations that have Banner Repeaters are St Helens Bridge, Angel Pass and Bodin.
- Platforms 5A and 5B don't have any OFF indicators or Banner Repeaters
As of V1.6, it is one of five triple-line junction stations along with Stepford Central, St Helens Bridge, Benton and Leighton Stepford Road, and is the first Waterline - Airlink interchange.
This station, as well as Westercoast, are the longest single word station names, with the overall longest station name being Stepford United Football Club.
This station has step-free access.
Though there are not many Waterline trains serving the Morganstown shuttle (R015), unlike Newry Harbour, the Waterline map did not label Morganstown as a station with limited service although both stations seldom have Waterline services calling at.

+* There was a glitch upon release of [[SCR Version 1.6|V1.6]] that allowed [[Airlink]] trains that used Platform 6 to be rerouted onto the [[Waterline]] bridge, and into [[Morganstown Docks]].
-* At Platforms 5A and 5B, there are two blue stop car markers that say "[[WaterLine]] Shuttle 2 car stop”, hinting that WaterLine may serve this line. Once it does, then Morganstown will be the first [[AirLink]] - WaterLine interchange. This shuttle route is now shown on the network map of [[SCR Version 1.4|V1.4]]. However, the color of the route on the map is strangely shown in [[Stepford Connect|Connect]] colours. As of V1.4.4, there are now 2 tracks with a 15mph speed limit to [[Morganstown Docks]]. Because the stop markers say 2 cars, only the [[Class 165]]/0, [[Class 171]] and [[Class 195]]/0 will be able to stop here. This could change in the future when it gets released.
