Kuraby railway station

Kuraby Railway Station is a railway station, a shopping centre, and an office tower. Kuraby Railway Station is located at 250 Antherhope Street, Wattle Plains, Weilur, Toshiba State, Hyundai Country and it is the terminus of Kuraby Line. Despite having its station name, Kuraby, which is named after Mr. John P. Kuraby, it is not related to Kuraby railway station which serves the Brisbane suburb of Kuraby in Australia nor to the other Kuraby railway station in Kuraby, Gooper City, Sigma State, Hyundai Country. This station was staffed and the security is high.

History
The station was opened in 1888, the time Kuraby railway line was opened. It was originally located at ground floor, and only had a short platform, fitting only five train cars, not ten as in normal. The station, along with the railway line, was named after Mr. John P. Kuraby, who was killed by Sengacce E. Meler in 1887.

In 1900, the station was expanded to include 2 platforms, and now platforms now fit 10-car trains.

In 1982, the station was electrified, and new signs were installed.

In 2009, a new tower was built, and so the Kuraby railway station is now located on the 2nd basement of the Kuraby railway station Tower (named after a railway station). The observation deck is located on the 35th floor. The section between Opperton and Wattle Plains become street-running section, sharing with traffic.
