The station opened in 1885 at the same time as the line.[1][2] In the past it was used to load freight for the distribution of timber and local produce.[citation needed] It also once had a goods shed.[citation needed] The station was severely damaged by a cyclone in 1936.[3] For some time trains of eight or nine carriages were stopping at Loganlea, even though its platform length could only cover two or three carriages.[4] On 21 April 1992, a second platform opened as part of the duplication of the line.[5] In December 2019, the Queensland Government announced the station's relocation, which will make it adjacent to Logan Hospital, expected to be completed before the 2032 Brisbane Olympics.[6][7]
