A pedestrian subway once existed at the up end of the station, until it was filled in and replaced with a pedestrian crossing in 1967.
The Eaglehawk–Kerang electric staff section was replaced with staff and ticket in 1987. In 1989, the signal box, interlocking and goods yard at the station was abolished. A former goods shed and a small disused platform is located opposite the station.
In 2020, the station underwent a refurbishment, including new car park spaces and drop-off zones, an upgraded forecourt and an extension to the platform at the up end of the station.
Located approximately 1 km west of the station is the junction of the Piangil line and the disused Eaglehawk–Inglewood line.
