History Edit

Buranda station opened in 1889 as Logan Road, being renamed Buranda in 1917.[2][3][4][5]

On 15 July 1996, the Fisherman Islands line to the Port of Brisbane opened to the north of the station.[6][7]

In the early hours of 29 March 2009, the main station building on platform one was destroyed by fire.[8] A 17-year-old man was later charged with one count of arson following the incident.[9]

Services Edit

Buranda is served by Cleveland line services from Shorncliffe, Northgate, Doomben and Bowen Hills to Cannon Hill, Manly and Cleveland.[10]
