History

Brunswick Junction opened in 1898, with its station building and interlocking completed in 1899 as a passenger stop on the South Western Railway connecting Perth to Bunbury as well as the junction for the Brunswick Junction to Narrogin railway line.^[1]

The original station building was closed and demolished in 1941 to be replaced by a much larger structure completed in 1942.^[2] The new station building had many more amenities than the previous building, including a waiting room and a large signal box.

In 1981 after years of neglect and declining use the station building was demolished and replaced with a basic shelter, which still stands today.^[3] After declining usage in 1988 the Brunswick Junction to Narrogin line was truncated at Collie, where it ends today.

On 20 November 2023 the Australind service was temporarily suspended due to the Armadale line shutdown, which severed access to Claisebrook depot, and the retirement of the former Australind railcars.^[4]
