The line originally ran as far as Pinkenba. The Pinkenba railway line was closed in 1993, due to lack of traffic, but the tracks and stations were not removed. In 1998, the line re-opened as far as Doomben, with bus connections to the other stations. The line generally carries low traffic, operating services principally either during peak hour on weekdays or during race days.
