The original station had a wooden platform 100 ft long, with a building housing male and female toilets and a waiting shelter, also made of wood.
During the First World War, the station's platform was extended at both ends in wood.
[2] After the war ended, the Kynoch site was sold to Cory Brothers of Cardiff and the station was subsequently renamed Coryton, along with the village.
[3] By this time, it was realised that the station (indeed the whole railway) would never be so busy again, so the wooden platform was demolished, leaving just the brick extension, with a ramp made from old sleepers added at its left end.
In the years immediately afterwards, the wooden building was demolished and the station became heavily infested with weeds.
