Venola Junction also has a Control Point (CP) included which provides a node house on the elevated structure, substation, and Wayside Relay Cabinets. Here you can see Force Account (Electricians) staff working on electrical issues. This Control Point powers a sizeable portion of the West Shore Line! CP has two means of power; primary power from the power lines and a backup source from Solar Energy.

This is Venola Junction which is located on the west side of the island. It serves the West Shore Line at all times ( Both Local and Express variants ). It also functions as a terminal for Trinity Line East.

This station contains 4 tracks {From the picture; the Tracks are: 1 [ ] 3 | 4 [ ] 2 }.

Local service stops on the outer tracks with Express service stopping on the middle tracks. The Trinity Line East only stops on the Track 2 side as the junction only has one track connection to that right of way. The approach to the Trinity Line can be viewed in the upper right of this picture.

Additional rail cars are periodically stored on the layup tracks on the southern end of the station. Those stub tracks are labeled 5 and 6 respectively.
