It had a short curved siding, used for such traffic as fertiliser and other agricultural goods.

The platform was south of the bridge, while the siding and goods yard were to the north.

The station closed completely on 1 August 1937 when goods traffic ceased.

By that time, almost every trace of the original station had gone, and the present structures – several of them relocated from other closed railways – are all new.

Blunsdon station offers attractions including the Swindon and Cricklade railway shop, cafe, toilets and car parking.
