There are two island platforms for platforms 1 and 2, and platforms 3 and 4 respectively.
Trains normally stop at platforms 2 and 3. Platforms 1 and 4 are used in the following occasions:
- for special departures during peak hours (platform 4 for southbound) and race days (platform 1 for northbound),
- to serve as buffers when the train frequency is high during peak hours, or
- to serve as buffers so that non-stop through trains can overtake local trains.

Famous quotes containing the word station:
“To act the part of a true friend requires more conscientious feeling than to fill with credit and complacency any other station or capacity in social life.”
