Tiaro Railway Station is a closed railway station on the North Coast railway line in Queensland.[1]
History
Tiaro's yard during construction, circa. 1887
The station was built in 1877, two years before the line from Gympie to Maryborough was completed. It consisted of a station building and a platform, and two sidings running parallel to the main North Coast line.[2][3] After the station closed, the building was moved to Mayne Street and restored as a tourist information centre. Some of the siding platforms still exist, however the station platform has been removed.
