Injune Railway Station was in operation from 1920 to 1967. The train is a C17 Class locomotive. The little station house was sold to a nearby piggery when the railway closed down. In 2011 the building was moved to its present site.

A reminder of Queensland’s worst rail disaster can be seen at Injune near the site of the old railway station. On 5 May 1947, C17 class locomotive 824 left the rails near Camp Mountain on the Dayboro line claiming the lives of 16 people and 38 injured. The Commonwealth Department of Trade & Customs Recreation and Social Club had chartered the train for a picnic at Closeburn. Negotiating a sharp curve at excessive speed caused the tragedy. The locomotive was repaired and continued in service until May 1967 when it was transferred to Injune along the recently closed line.
