Hi all,

I am curious. I thought I knew all of the former stations/stops & even their former names...but upon visiting the Heritage House Museum at Yarraman yesterday, I came across a reference to, "Silverwater", which apparently was a wayward stop/siding north of Mt Hallen...can anybody provide me with any information with regards to this stop, as it's got intrigued! I believe, "Silverwater", was the name of the private property that the siding was near...

Most of these residents complaining lived from Petrie inwards who have shopped or worked at Toombul Shoppingtown for years and now have to get off at Northgate or Eagle Junc. and change trains for a 2 or 1 station journey.

Hi everyone, I was just wondering if anyone had any photos of old Clarendon Station from along the Brisbane Valley Railway Line at all? I've tried Bonzle & Trove, to no avail, but maybe I'm not putting the correct key words in to the search bar?
