Buses using compressed natural gas (CNG) are banned from the tunnel (because lighter-than-air CNG can collect and cause a gas explosion in the event of a leaking tank), as are all non-MBTA vehicles. The platform is located on the left side for southbound buses (routes 71 and 73 boarding, and a number of terminating routes). MBTA trolleybuses are equipped with an additional left-hand door for boarding on this level; because this door does not have a farebox, passengers instead pay while alighting from routes 71 and 73. Because other buses using the tunnel do not have left-hand doors, passengers must alight next to the wall and cross in front of the bus.

Platform height across the UK rail network is not standardised; at the time of the construction of the network, different railway companies settled on different platform heights. Platforms sited low (compared to the level of the train carriage floor) present entry and exit problems to mobility-impaired train users, including wheelchair users. Raising the level of a complete platform is relatively costly and in many instances beyond the means of Network Rail and local authorities. The impetus for the hump, it is claimed, was a complaint by the chairman of the Copeland Rail Users' Group about low platforms on the Cumbrian Coast Line causing users difficulty in alighting from trains, made at Allerdale Area Transport Advisory Group, a sub-committee of Cumbria County Council's Local Committee.

A second track was later added in 1882. Following the opening of the Chicago and Evanston Railroad (whose right-of-way paralleled that of the Milwaukee Division through South Evanston) in May 1885, Calvary became a joint facility shared between the two companies with each railroad paying half for the cost and use of the station. At this time, the Chicago and North Western had two tracks passing the area, however a third track branched off from the eastern track to the east north of the station, passed through the facility, and terminated south of the station. A pair of side platforms were provided for boarding and alighting from the western and easternmost tracks while an island platform was set between the two eastern tracks.
