Corinda railway station is located on the Main line in Queensland, Australia. It serves the Brisbane suburb of Corinda.
History
[edit]Corinda station opened in 1875 as South Brisbane Junction, being renamed Corinda in 1888. In 1884, a branch line was built from Corinda to the South Brisbane wharves.[1] The branch line is now known as the Corinda-Yeerongpilly line.
The station was rebuilt in 1960 as part of the quadruplication of the line from Roma Street.[2] In 2010, the quadruplication was extended to Darra as part of the construction of the Springfield line.[3]
Services
[edit]Corinda is served by Citytrain network services operating from Nambour, Caboolture, Kippa-Ring and Bowen Hills to Springfield Central, Ipswich and Rosewood.[4][5]
During peak hours, trains ran between Central and Corinda via Tennyson, Yeerongpilly and the Corinda-Yeerongpilly line until replaced by Transport for Brisbane's route 104 in June 2011.[6]
Corinda is also served by Queensland Rail Travel's twice weekly Westlander service travelling between Brisbane and Charleville.[7]
