In 1884, the Brisbane Valley railway line opened as far as Lowood, later continuing to Esk and eventually as far as Blackbutt, allowing fast efficient transport of produce to the markets in Brisbane and Ipswich.
The Brisbane Valley line survived for a century, until 1989.
 The line has been removed and the Brisbane Valley Rail Trail created over much of its length.
