The Cunnamulla All Aboard Show is currently running 7 Days per week out of our beautifully restored Railway Station and purpose built Gold Class Theatre - have you experienced the Cunnamulla All Aboard Show yet??Did you know the historic Cunnamulla Railway Station first opened in 1898 when the railway finally arrived in town?Back in its heyday, the famous Westlander line connecting Brisbane to Cunnamulla was the 4th busiest rail line in all of Queensland! 👏After the original station was destroyed by fire, it was rebuilt in the 1930s and continued welcoming passenger trains right up until 1994. Freight trains continued for a few more years before major flooding caused Queensland Rail to end train services beyond Charleville.Today, the journey continues with the Westlander rail bus service from Charleville to Cunnamulla — keeping this iconic outback connection alive. 🌅Have you visited the beautiful old railway station lately? 📸For more information, visit: www.railwaystation.com.au#Cunnamulla #OutbackQueensland #RailwayHistory #QueenslandHistory #TheWestlander #FunFactFriday #CunnamullaRailwayStation #OutbackAdventure #VisitQueensland #CunnamullaAllAboard ...
