The station has a shed with a roof where people can go inside when it is raining. It also has a half dozen free parking spaces along the tracks on the southeast corner of the railroad crossing at Providence Road.

A storage track begins east of Providence Road across from the station shed that eventually becomes the second track.[2] Additionally, a shopping center exists along Baltimore Pike between North Providence and Beatty Roads, which has a stop of its own.
