The narrow gauge hump yard within the Forrestfield Marshalling Yard occupies virtually the whole western side of the entire complex, extending 3.2h having a maximum width of 200m and covering an area of approximately 85 hectare overall. The standard gauge yard is on the east and all operational and service facilities shared between the two gauges are in a strip along the centre of the yard.

The Hump Yard marshalls all loads for country destinations which were previously done at Midland, Perth Central, East Perth and Fremantle yards and block marshalls loads for metropolitan delivery points.
