Signalling
West Ryde Signal Box was a timber structure situated on the city end of platform 3. Until 1937 it controlled a level crossing on Victoria Road. Also situated at West Ryde was a water board siding and a connection to the former tram network, which provided for transfer of vehicles between light and heavy rail systems. It was closed in 1982, when control was transferred to Epping signal box. Epping Signal Box was closed on 12 November 2006. Control of the area was then transferred to Strathfield signal box and then to the new Homebush signal box in October 2008.
