The suburb of Strathfield includes many high-rise apartments and a number of shopping centres such as Strathfield Plaza. These are mostly on the southern side of the station along with a large taxi stand and bus terminal.
Strathfield is located on the Northern, Inner West, Western and South railway lines and is also a stop for trains on the CountryLink network. The station has Easy Access for wheelchairs.
The station has 8 platforms, with the northern platforms (1-3) serving Countrylink and inter-city trains; (4-6) serving the Northern and Western lines; and the southern platforms (7-8) serving the South and Inner West lines.

History
The first platforms were opened as Redmyre in 1877. The name was changed to Strathfield on 29 August, 1900. The current platforms were completed on 7 March, 1927. [2] In addition, a platform and building was erected at the up end of platform 8 which provided a mortuary receiving facility.[3] This was subsequently converted to a store for the Railway Refreshment Room on the station.
