This utilitarian station serves the metropolitan city of Edmonton. However, its distant location away from downtown and lack of rapid transit connections makes this station a pain to reach even though it’s located in a major city.

Pros
- For a small station there are plenty of amenities
Cons
- Located 5.5km away from the downtown
- No bus or rapid transit connections (the future Blatchford Gate Station will bring Edmonton Transit LRT rapid transit within 2km)

Notes
- Given the this station’s location on a branch line on the fringe of a residential area, travellers cannot take this stopover to visit restaurants or downtown (unlike Winnipeg Union Station)
