Islington yard

Opposite the station lay a TNT yard that was also used by Holden. The yard had closed by the late 1990s, and remained unused until 2008 when it was completely demolished to make way for a new residential development, which may include the station being re-built or upgraded. The site is currently being decontaminated.

North of the station lie the Islington Railway Workshops. To the west of the station lies the Australian Rail Track Corporation standard gauge line to Crystal Brook.

Islington station is served by Adelaide Metro's route 300 Suburban Connector.
