History

The station today consists of one platform with a wooden structure. In 2009, the platform was extended at both its northern and southern ends with scaffolding and plywood materials. [1] Initially intended as an interim arrangement until a permanent extension was built, the temporary platform remains. [2] Opposite the platform lies a passing loop and a disused goods yard.

Services

Woombye is serviced by Citytrain network services to Brisbane, Nambour and Gympie North. [3] To relieve congestion on the single track North Coast line, the rail service is supplemented by a bus service operated by Kangaroo Bus Lines on weekdays between Caboolture and Nambour as route 649. [4]
