Callington station was located between Balyarta and Monarto South on the Adelaide-Wolseley line.

The line opened in stages: on 14 March 1883 from Adelaide to Aldgate, on 28 November 1883 to Nairne, on 1 May 1886 to Bordertown and on 19 January 1887 to Serviceton.

[1][2] The station consisted of a ticket office, and a large shelter, similar to the one at Balhannah.

The large shelter and ticket office were later replaced with a smaller building in 1951.

The water tower next to the station master's house also remains at the site.
