The station closed in the 1980's, but the platforms and footbridge (carrying a right-of-way) remain. Immediately before closure, there were only 3 or 4 trains a day from Brightside Station. This is a bit of a contrast to the 15-or-so trains an hour that serve the current Meadowhall Station, half a mile to the north-east.
