Unmanned location on the  Port Augusta-Hawker Line .

Station, goods, mineral loading bank and shunting loops, stockyard siding, loco servicing facilities and a turning WYE.

Hawker became the terminus when the line to Marree was closed in 1956. The mineral (Barytes - Barium Sulfate) traffic from a mine 70km north of Hawker was the main reason the line remained open after 1956. The mineral was trucked to Hawker and then railed to a crushing and bagging mill at Quorn for shipment by rail throughout the country. Rail was used between Hawker and Quorn because of the poor condition of the roads.

In the 1960s there was only a single scheduled freight service each week. There were no passenger services. The line was closed in 1972.
