The station is on the Barton Line 17mi north west of Cleethorpes and all trains serving it are operated by Northern.It is the last station, when travelling from Cleethorpes towards Barton, to still have two platforms and the original station buildings. The buildings are no longer in railway use (the station has been unstaffed since 1969) and are in private ownership. The station signal box controls a nearby level crossing that still (as of summer 2016) has manually-wound wooden gates rather than modern lifting barriers.

This route was single line throughout and left the present route just south of the station.FacilitiesThe station is unmanned and has only basic amenities - a single shelter on the southbound platform, a payphone and timetable poster boards on each side.
