Location

Brickworks railway station was a suburban railway station located on the Abattoirs line, serving the State Brickworks at Homebush Bay, in the modern Sydney suburb of Sydney Olympic Park. Initially built only for industrial purposes, the station subsequently received public passenger services until its closure in the early 1980s.
