Mayne Yard Construction

The Cross River Rail Delivery Authority is constructing new train stabling facilities, a train crew building and a graffiti removal facility at Mayne Yard. The works are being delivered on behalf of Queensland Rail.

Mayne Yard is an expansion of Queensland Rail’s existing Mayne Yard depot at Bowen Hills. The upgrade is identified in the Queensland Rail Stabling Program, as it is a key inner-city stabling solution to support network growth and operations.

The new train stabling facility at Mayne Yard will be able to stable up to 17 trains. Mayne Yard will also be used to stable, clean and maintain trains used on the South East Queensland rail network.

Mayne Yard is expected to be commissioned in early 2023. Enabling works will then take place at the existing Mayne Yard Depot, which are expected to be completed in 2024.
