The station house is an unmanned modestly decorative shelter that is open 24 hours per day, 7 days a week. Parking is available on both sides of the tracks and on both sides of Lincoln Avenue. On the north side, there are small on-side parking lots between the tracks and the south side of North Northwest Highway. On the south side, much larger parking lots exist on Lincoln Avenue.

The station underwent a complete rebuild, that extended platforms to 640 ft, (enough for an 8-car train), 2 new passenger shelters, bathroom facilities, repaved parking lot and improved lighting. The total price was $3.5 million, of which $1.2 million came from Union Pacific. The project was completed in the fall of 2013.[3]
Accident

The school bus was caught between the railroad tracks and the intersection with US 14, resulting in the accident.
