 Two sidings ran down the centre of the goods yard behind the station.These received coal for local traders and handled scrap iron for the dealer who occupied part of the goods yard.Passenger traffic over the Dunstable branch in its later years was not great except on market days, and Dunstable Town, as it became known after January 1927, was closed to goods traffic in 1964 and to passengers in 1965 after it was listed for closure in the Beeching report.
