Eagle Farm railway station

Opened in 1952 as Baraini railway station, it was renamed a few months later to Airport railway station[1] since it was located near the old Brisbane Airport at Eagle Farm before it moved to its current location, north, at the demolished suburb Cribb Island.

[1] All passenger services on the line were suspended on 27 September 1993 by the Goss Labor Party state government rationalisation of the rail network throughout Queensland, with the suspending or closing of unprofitable and under-utilised rail lines.

In 1998 the line re-opened to passenger services, but only operated as far as Doomben, the station immediately prior, with connecting bus services to the former railway stations between Doomben and Pinkenba.

The Eagle Farm railway station building was demolished in early 2012.

The original Eagle Farm railway station opened in 1897 just 90 metres past Airport, west of the corner of Want Street and Schneider Road, behind the Ford Motor Company of Australia site, today home of G. James glass.
