Loganlea railway station is located on the Beenleigh line in Queensland, Australia. It serves the suburbs of Loganlea and Meadowbrook in Logan City. It is within a short distance of Logan Hospital, TAFE college, Griffith University, Loganlea State High School and Meadowbrook Shopping Centre.
History
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.

Loganlea is served by all stops Beenleigh line services from Beenleigh to Bowen Hills and Ferny Grove. It is also served by limited stops Gold Coast line services from Varsity Lakes to Bowen Hills, Doomben and Brisbane Airport.
