Lawnton station opened in 1888.[1] In 2001, a third platform opened as part of the addition of a third track from Bald Hills to just north of the station.[2][3]
As part of the Redcliffe Peninsula railway line project, the third track has been extended north to Petrie including a new bridge over the North Pine River.[4]
Lawnton is served by all Citytrain network services from Kippa-Ring to Central, many continuing to Springfield Central[5]
