Petrie railway station is located on the North Coast line in Queensland, Australia. It serves the suburb of Petrie in the City of Moreton Bay.[1] It opened as North Pine railway station in 1888 after the nearby North Pine River and was renamed Petrie railway station (after local pioneer Thomas Petrie) in 1911.[1][2]
The station has five platforms. As part of the Redcliffe Peninsula line, the station was expanded with a new island platform built east of the existing platforms.[3][4] It opened along with the rest of the line on 4 October 2016.[5] As part of the project, a third track was added south of the station to Lawnton.[6] North of the station, the Redcliffe Peninsula line branches off.
