Hexham originally had a substantial brick platform building; however, this was demolished in May 1993 and replaced with a lightweight bus-shelter type structure. 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. ==Platforms and services==
