Trivia
- With a gap of only 0.24 miles (386 metres), Morganstown Docks and Port Benton are the two closest stations on the whole of Stepford County Railway network.
- This beats Elsemere Pond and Elsemere Junction by just 0.02 miles, which have a distance of 0.26 miles between stations.
- Because of the short distance between this station and Port Benton, there isn't enough time to play the "this train is now approaching" announcement between these stations.
- It is possible to get off a train at this station, run to Port Benton, and catch the same train due to the short distance.
- This station and Whitney Green are the only stations on the SCR network where the platforms are only long enough for 3 coaches so the 4th coach is not on the platform, and it blocks the crossing if you're on Platform 2. Depending on where you stop the last coach may open. However, at stations such as East Berrily, it says that coach four will not open but It can perfectly fit 4 car trains but coach 5 will be left out in the open.
- The Class 195/1 fits perfectly on the platforms.
- Before V1.4.4, there were only three platforms at this station, with only Platforms 2 and 3 being used. Platform 4 was added in V1.4.4, and was put in use in V1.6.
- Morganstown Docks is actually the newest station on the short R013 branch; before it was added, trains had to go from Port Benton to Whitney Green or vice-versa before Morganstown Docks was added between those two stations, making it an infill station.
- In Version 1.6, the Morganstown Shuttle opened, and this station finally got a direct connection to Morganstown. You would have to make 2 changes before: a Waterline to Benton then an Stepford Express to Stepford Central then an Airlink to Morganstown.
- This station has step-free access.
