History[]
This section needs expansion. You can help by . (September 2017) |
The station opened in 1969 as Green Field, later changing to Greenfields.[when?]
It is one of only two stations on the Gawler Central line to have a pedestrian underpass (the other is Parafield Gardens). The other stations have had theirs closed due to concerns with safety and vandalism.[citation needed] To the west of the station lies the Australian Rail Track Corporation standard gauge line to Crystal Brook.
