History

Southbound platform, 2018

The station opened in 1885 at the same time as the line. In the past it was used to load freight for the distribution of timber and local produce. It also once had a goods shed. The station was severely damaged by a cyclone in 1936. For some time trains of eight or nine carriages were stopping at Loganlea, even though its platform length could only cover two or three carriages. On 21 April 1992, a second platform opened as part of the duplication of the line. In December 2019, the Queensland Government announced the station's relocation, which will make it adjacent to Logan Hospital, expected to be completed before the 2032 Brisbane Olympics.
