For more details on this topic, see Rail transport in Queensland.

Gympie North replaced the still-existing Gympie railway station as the rail hub for the area, as a result of deviations made in the 1990s. The old Gympie station is now used as the home station of the Mary Valley Railway steam train, which travels to Imbil on heritage and scenic tours.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    The history of the genesis or the old mythology repeats itself in the experience of every child. He too is a demon or god thrown into a particular chaos, where he strives ever to lead things from disorder into order.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “And now this is the way in which the history of your former life has reached my ears!” As he said this he held out in his hand the fatal letter.
    Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)

    What you don’t understand is that it is possible to be an atheist, it is possible not to know if God exists or why He should, and yet to believe that man does not live in a state of nature but in history, and that history as we know it now began with Christ, it was founded by Him on the Gospels.
    Boris Pasternak (1890–1960)
