Dovedale East is a major station located between Jaiden's House and Dovedale Central. It acts as a stop for services between Fanory Mill and Dovedale Central. The station was controlled by the largest signal box in the game, the Dovedale East Signalling Centre during 1.0. Due to the line from Satus Services to Dovedale East being single-track, trains sometimes have to queue before departing.
The station has a total of 4 platforms that are bi directional, and has 2 platforms for terminating services from both directions.
Dovedale East was one of the two stations, the other being Satus Services, where there were NPC passengers that would board your train after stopping, although due to some issues with NPCs failing to enter trains, they were removed.
