==History== {{refimprove section|date=July 2023}} Smithfield station opened on Monday 1st June 1857 <ref name="Playford's Past_2020-05-13">{{Citation | url=https://playfordspast.recollect.net.au/nodes/view/305| title=Smithfield Railway station| newspaper=Playford's Past| access-date=May 13, 2020}}</ref> as the original terminus of the main north line, before the line was extended in October to Gawler. There was originally 6 services a day - 3 Up and 3 Down each, scheduled 4 hours apart, to and from Adelaide with stations also located at North Adelaide, Grand Junction, Dry Creek and Salisbury. <ref>https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/207175920</ref> A station building and ticket office of the same design as those at North Adelaide station built in 1856 were provided. A short branch line running almost due west to the Smithfield munitions storage depot was built during World War II. This branch line was closed around 1961 when part of the depot was closed and the land sold for subdivision.
The original station building and ticket office was demolished in June 1987. By that time, the station building had been heavily vandalised.<ref name="Playford's Past_2020-05-13"></ref> Station shelters like the ones at Dry Creek were installed, and these remained until a new station shelter was erected in 2001. At the same time, the western platform was upgraded.{{citation needed|date=August 2017}}
