Facilities
The two wooden platforms each have a shelter and passenger information notice boards.[2] It is not staffed and has a single ticket machine on the north-bound platform, meaning passengers are expected to purchase their tickets, then traverse two long ramps and the railway bridge if they wish to travel southbound. Though there is step-free access from the car park onto the platforms, Northern's station information page states that it is unsuitable for use by disabled passengers.[3] The cycle racks are also somewhat secluded and have low security.
Service
From Monday to Saturday, there is an hourly service to Sheffield southbound and to Leeds via Wakefield Westgate northbound. One additional service also calls here en route to Pontefract Baghill and York northbound only in the morning peak.
On Sunday, there is also an hourly service in each direction, though starting later in the morning.[4]
