Seddon is a minor suburban station with two side platforms on twin tracks. An older style footbridge links the platforms at the down end, with the present utilitarian brown brick station buildings provided in 1981. The up platform has a large building that is disused, the down platform has a small shelter.
Seddon was initially opened as a Double Line Block post between Footscray and Yarraville stations in 1906. In 1912 it was closed as a block post, but automatic signalling was not provided on the section until 1927.
