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.
- 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.
