History
The railway from Manly to the original Cleveland station (renamed West Cleveland, later Cleveland Central) was opened in 1889 and extended to the second Cleveland station in 1897.
The station was opened as Raby Bay in 1914.
The line beyond Lota was closed in 1960. When the line reopened in 1987, the former Raby Bay station became the third to carry the name Cleveland.
