Gundiah Railway Station is a closed railway station on Queensland's North Coast railway line.[1] In 1922, a goods train derailed at the railway station.[2]
On Friday the 24th of November, 1922, a train carrying goods derailed while shunting at Gundiah. The brake van fell across the North Coast line, making Gundiah impassable for many days. Several wagons of goods were also derailed.[3] At about 7pm,[3] the driver of the train was moving the entire consist forward, however, the train failed to move up the grade. The driver reversed to make another attempt at the grade, however "part of the train ran back onto the main line, and part onto the siding at Gundiah Station". Nobody was injured.[4]
