In May 1888, the station was renamed Bethania Junction as it was the junction station of the Beenleigh Line and the former Beaudesert Line and it was renamed Bethania in 1943. Refreshment rooms opened at the station in 1908 and closed in 1964. On 3 November 1984, the line was electrified from Kingston to Beenleigh. On 21 April 1992, a third platform opened as part of the duplication of the line.
