History

Built in the 1940's by Malton Rail, the Cardwell Plaza Station was a later added second half to a small local inner-suburb commuter hub. Along with Bayley Row Railway Station it mainly provided commuter service with Richmond Hills itself, as well as to Norvell Avenue Railway Station to the North in Eastonwood. With the expansion to Blunt Boulevard Railway Station to the East in Ketchelbank, which in turn provided the closest public rail service to the Malton City Zoo, in the 1980's, the station became a notable junction of the two present-day lines.

In accordance to the Richmond Hills Barricade Plan, Cardwell Plaza Railway Station should be maintained at Extremely Heavily Barricaded (EHB).
