The North Coast line from Caboolture to Landsborough (which included a siding at Beerburrum) was completed on 1 February 1890. [1] [2] [3]

Beerburrum station was originally a single platform with a crossing loop. As part of the construction of a new 14 kilometre alignment for the North Coast line from Caboolture to Beerburrum, a new station was built immediately to the east, opening on 14 April 2009. Beyond Beerburrum, the line becomes single track. [4] [5] It is scheduled to be duplicated to Landsborough by 2021. [6]

Services

Beerburrum is serviced by City network services to Brisbane, Nambour and Gympie North.
