Line Guide and Services
Prior to the opening of the Merivale Bridge in 1978, the line was the only connection between the northern and southern portions of the Brisbane suburban network. Through trains ran from Stanley Street and later South Brisbane to Corinda, Darra and Ipswich in the morning peak and afternoon school hours with a shuttle between Yeerongpilly and Corinda at other times. After 1978 the line lost some of its importance and most through trains were withdrawn. The shuttle was withdrawn on 1 June 1998 but reinstated soon after. The shuttle continued until 25 May 2001 when it was replaced by buses, with through services from Corinda to Bowen Hills railway station in the morning and afternoon. Through services continued to operate at peak times on weekdays until they were withdrawn in June 2011.
Passengers for/from the Ipswich line changed at Corinda, Beenleigh line changed at Yeerongpilly, Cleveland and Gold Coast lines at Park Road, and all other lines at Central.
