The platform and wooden station building had been reconstructed at Thomson for use by WGR tourist trains as the current terminus. The large bridge across the Thomson exists at the down end of the station, while two trestle bridges at the up end of the station have been dismantled in preparation for their restoration as part of a future extension of the railway to Erica.
