Platforms & services

Mindaribba consists of a single wooden platform about three metres long. It is served by NSW TrainLink Hunter line services travelling between Hamilton (Newcastle) and Dungog. There are five services in each direction on weekdays, with three on Saturdays and two on Sundays.[2] It is a request stop with passengers required to notify the guard if they wish to alight. The platform is so small that it has attracted some media attention[3]

Opposite the platform is a 1,500 metre crossing loop.
