Leumeah station is located on the Main Southern line, serving the Sydney suburb of Leumeah. It is served by Sydney Trains T8 Airport & South line services.
History
Leumeah station opened in 1886.[3] The station is the main access station for Campbelltown Stadium, home of the A-League football team Macarthur FC and the Wests Tigers National Rugby League team.[4]
The station was initially made wheelchair accessible in 2004 with a lift to each platform complete. However, the station received a third lift on the western side of the station in 2012, due to the Southern Sydney Freight Line removing pedestrian access to the Platform 1 lift.
In January 2013, the Southern Sydney Freight Line opened to the west of the station.
Since the second half of 2017, Leumeah railway station has been served exclusively by the Airport and East Hills line, meaning commuters have to change at Glenfield to travel to either the city via Granville station or to Blacktown station via the Cumberland Line.[5][6]
