Hexham originally had a substantial brick platform building; however, this was demolished in May 1993 and replaced with a lightweight bus-shelter type structure.[3] The station has a full-length island platform; however, the eastern end has been fenced off to a shorter two carriage train length.
Until 1987, the Richmond Vale's exchange sidings were located opposite Hexham station.
In November 2014, the Australian Rail Track Corporation completed a project that saw the westbound coal road relocated further south to make way for five 1,800 metre passing loops.[4][5][6][7][8]
South of the coal road, Aurizon have a locomotive depot.[9]
