Distance from Gladstone: 30½ kms, 19 miles from Peterborough: 35 kms, 21¾ miles
Manned station on the Port Pirie-Broken Hill Line .
Multiple loops and sidings including goods, grain and storage. Loco servicing facility.
After the conversion of the line to standard gauge (4ft8½in - 1435mm) in 1969-70 Jamestown became a passing loop with sidings and a new grain terminal. The goods and servicing facilities have been removed.
The station building is being reused as a local museum. Rail passenger services no longer stop at Jamestown and passengers now rely on a bus service.
