History

Pennant Hills station opened on 17 September 1886.[1] In the 1990s, the station received an upgrade being fitted with lifts. Immediately north of Pennant Hills, a short four track section of the Main Northern line begins which runs to the next station at Thornleigh.[2]

As part of the North Sydney Freight Corridor project, an electrified passing loop is being behind the western platform where it will join the existing loop. As part of these works the western platform is being converted to an island.[3][4][5][6] The new platform will open on 14 June 2016.[7]
