Which Queensland LGA has the most stations?

Continuing on from Melbourne, Victoria, Sydney, and New South Wales, we now focus on Queensland, the state that Melburnians love to flock to apparently.

For this spreadsheet, I tried something different. In my earlier spreadsheets the biggest city and the rest of the state each got their own spreadsheet. This was because I would do the LGAs for the city, and then at a later date, do the LGAs for the rest of the state.

For this spreadsheet however, Brisbane and the rest of Queensland are together.

Here is the spreadsheet in all its glory.

Some notes

- At eighty-five railway stations, Brisbane City council has the most stations out of any Australian LGA.

- Ipswich City is a distant second for Greater Brisbane, coming in at nineteen stations.

- There are only five LGAs in Greater Brisbane, with the remaining LGAs having sixteen (Moreton Bay), seven (Logan), or five stations (Redland).

- Ignoring Greater Brisbane, the Queensland LGA with the most stations is far and away the Sunshine Coast, with a grand total of eleven.

- Nothing much else to say, the data here is pretty much identical to Victorian and NSW LGAs.

Conclusion

A short post for this week due to being very busy with life and higher education, hope you enjoyed this blog!

Station Names on Melbourne's Sunbury Line

Image
Moving along, we have another part of the name origin series that will be covered in this article. Today's topic, the Sunbury Line! Sunbury Line stations from the PTV map, does not include White City or Holden. This article will cover every station on the Sunbury Line from Middle Footscray to Sunbury. This includes eleven stations that are open and two that are currently closed. For information on stations such as North Melbourne, South Kensington, Footscray, you can view my article on the Williamstown line, which can be found here . With that out of the way, let us find out where some of these names come from! Middle Footscray Middle Footscray's name is of obvious origin, being right in between Footscray and West Footscray. I have already written in an earlier post that Footscray is named after the town of Foots Cray in England. West Footscray Footscray is the westernmost of the Footscray area's three stations and is located in the suburb of the same name. Prior to Septem...

Station Names on Melbourne's Williamstown Line

Hi there! This post is the second part of a multipart series documenting the origins of the names given to stations that are apart of the Melbourne Metro network. This week's post will cover the fairly quiet Williamstown Line, which will include stations shared with the Werribee line, such as Newport and Yarraville. But before we get into this week's topic, I just want to mention a few things: Firstly, thank you so much to everyone who has read the blog in the past few days, my post about the names of Melbourne's City Loop stations seemed to go down pretty well. Secondly, thank you to everyone who gave me feedback on how to improve this blog. I have added new information about Melbourne's City Loop, which you can read here. Thirdly, the next part of this series will cover the station's served by the Werribee Line, coming in two weeks. Next week's post will not have anything to do with station names. Now, with all that all said and done, let us head towards the m...

Walking from Melbourne to Ballarat

Image
Between 8:30PM on the 24th of June 2021 and 10PM on the 25th of June 2021, I walked from my home in the inner-suburbs in Melbourne and ended up at Ballarat railway station, a journey of 111km. I was originally going to write a blog post about the trip as a whole, describing all the roads I went down and stuff like that. Problem is, I am a terrible writer and I was never satisfied with what I wrote for that blog, so I am going to just make a post about some of the moments I had doing this long and ardous trip. The public toilet map lied to me There is a website known as the National Public Toilet Map that does exactly what it says on the tin, show you a map of toilets. While it has been useful to me on numerous occassions, this trip was not one of those times. The map informed me that there was a toilet at a BP in Caroline Springs that had a toilet avaliable at all times of day, however, upon asking if I could use the toilet, I was informed that the toilet was closed and would not open...
