The line was formerly two-track but was reduced to a single track in the 1980s; Montdidier, Moreuil and Estrées-Saint-Denis are the only remaining intermediate points where trains can pass each other.

In 2003, the station was improved and made accessible to the handicapped as part of a modernisation of the Amiens - Compiègne link financed under the 12th French state-regional contractual plan.

The rails have been removed between Roye and Montdidier (Cambrai - Paris Nord line), and between Estrées-St-Denis et Longueil-Ste-Marie.

Only one track has been retained to preserve the TER connection between Amiens and Creil; between Estrées and Compiègne, the line was always single-track.

The station formerly also allowed connections to the metre-gauge lines in the Somme operated by the Société générale des chemins de fer économiques from Albert via Rosières and from Noyon via Roye-sur-Matz (Oise region).
