Lindum railway station is located next to Iona College, on the Cleveland line in Queensland, Australia. It serves the Brisbane suburb of Wynnum West.

The location of "Lindum" was once a suburb named for a residential house in the area. In the 1980s, Lindum ceased to exist as a suburb and is now recognised as a locality within the broader suburb of Wynnum West.[1]

In November 1996, the Fisherman Islands line to the Port of Brisbane opened to the north of the station. It branches off to the east of the station.[2][3]

Incidents[]

In February 2019, an elderly woman died after being struck by a train while crossing the tracks.[4]

Two years later a 32-year-old woman died after her car was struck while on the crossing.[5]

Services[]

Lindum is served by Cleveland line services from Shorncliffe, Northgate, Doomben and Bowen Hills to Manly and Cleveland.[6]
