It is a terminus for commuter train services on the Northern Line.

The opposite side of the station building is an important archaeological site of Lopburi, Wat Phra Sri Rattana Mahathat.

Lopburi is the current northern end of the double-track section from Bangkok and further double tracking on the line has begun construction between Lopburi – Pak Nam Pho.

However, to the north of the station where the tracks run adjacent to the Phra Prang Sam Yot, the double tracking was not possible due to the predicted detrimental effects of increased rail traffic on the historical site.

As a result, a bypass route was constructed between Ban Klap and Khok Kathiam railway stations.
