History

Elimbah station was originally a single platform with a crossing loop. As part of the construction of a new 14 kilometre alignment for the North Coast line from Caboolture to Beerburrum, a new station was built immediately to the east, opening on 14 April 2009.[http://statements.cabinet.qld.gov.au/MMS/StatementDisplaySingle.aspx?id=49759 Landsborough station upgrade plans revealed] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120205043703/http://statements.cabinet.qld.gov.au/MMS/StatementDisplaySingle.aspx?id=49759 |date=5 February 2012 }} Queensland Government 21 December 2006[https://web.archive.org/web/20090615001538/http://www.qr.com.au/seqip/projects/Caboolture/default.asp Caboolture to Beerburrum Duplication] Queensland Rail[http://www.tmr.qld.gov.au/Projects/Name/C/Caboolture-to-Landsborough-Rail-Upgrade-Study.aspx Caboolture to Landsborough Rail Upgrade Study] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141223081355/http://www.tmr.qld.gov.au/Projects/Name/C/Caboolture-to-Landsborough-Rail-Upgrade-Study.aspx |date=23 December 2014 }} Department of Transport & Main Roads
