Redbank station is beside the large Redbank Railway Workshops, where most of Aurizon's diesel locomotives are repaired and maintained, and where all wagons are made and repaired. The workshops also repair and overhaul City network electric multiple units. Near the station are coal train wagon storage roads used for the Jondaryan, Macalister and Columboola coal mines, west of Toowoomba.
In May 2012, three stabling sidings were opened to the west of the station.[1][2]
