Bromelton is a small village in southern Queensland, Australia. At the 2006 census, Bromelton and the surrounding area had a population of 536.[1]

Transport

The town has a crossing loop on the national standard gauge railway network. Because land is available at this site, it is proposed to construct a transport hub, where freight trains can be unloaded, or transshipped from standard gauge to narrow gauge. It is also the case the existing hub at Acacia Ridge is full and the owners of that hub are not prepared to make space available for other users.

The line between Acacia Ridge and Bromelton would be converted to dual gauge.
