Originally named Birt's Siding, changed in 1910 to Buruda; renamed to Doboy in 1929. 'Doboy' was chosen over 'Doughboy' and 'Doboi' due to the latter names clashing with other place names in Australia. The platforms were installed in 1938. By the 1990s, most trains bypassed the station, with the exception of morning and afternoon trains for the workers at the local meatworks. It closed in 1993 following the closure of the meatworks.Eagle FarmBoth; see pageGloucester StreetHolm's HaltHolmviewThe original location of the station.Mayne JunctionMeeandahNewsteadNormanbyNorthgateThe original location of the station.NyandaPinkenbaRivertonSamfordSamsonvaleStanley Street1884Tarragun1890ThorroldtownWooloowinBrisbane18851890————————Closed due to their being 'so many stations', with Thorroldtown, Lutwyche, and Eagle Junction stations only being within of each other. An 1888 survey identified that Thorroldtown station only covered 2% of passengers out of all three stations. The closure of the station was met with controversy, and legal action was considered to try and save the station. It is between and north of the present Wooloowin Railway Station, which served as the replacement station after its closing.TennysonTennysonBrisbane18842011Opened as Softstone Pocket railway station, re-named Tennyson in 1887. Reopening the station has been suggested, highlighting that it could improve public transport within the area.Toowong Sports GroundToowongBrisbane1890————————It is believed the station did not have a station number. In June 1888, a platform for the station was erected for the sixth annual Athletic Sports and Bicycle races. Most trains did not stop at the station, with residents requesting morning and afternoon trains to stop at the station in February 1889, but the Rail Department declined due to the expense of constructing a station house and appointing a station officer. In July 1889, it was reported that the station generated 2s. 8d. in a 12-month period. The station was just opposite of the Sports Ground (now Oakman Park). WoolloongabbaWoolloongabbaBrisbane18841967Constructed in 1884 and opened in June that year. Originally misspelled by the Railway Department as 'Woolongabba'. In 1889, maintaining the use of the station as a goods depot and enlarging the operations of the station for this purpose was accepted. The opening of a new line in 1891 saw the line bypass both Woolloongabba and Stanley Street stations. By 1894, the construction of a goods extension line was accepted, which saw access to Woolloongabba, with the line opening in 1897. However, in 1912, the return of passenger trains to the station was requested. The station was closed in 1967, while the goods yard closed in 1969.WhinstanesHamiltonBrisbane1897————————The station was merged with Doomben in the 1970s.
