History

Salisbury station opened in 1885 at the same time as the line. In September 1930, Salisbury became a junction with the opening of the NSW North Coast line. The line was duplicated between 1950 and 1952 from Yeerongpilly to Kuraby. On 18 September 1982, the line was electrified from Roma Street to Kingston. In 1996, as part of the construction of the Gold Coast line, the standard gauge was converted to dual gauge.

Salisbury serves the homonymous suburb of Salisbury which was named after the residence of William Coote who was an early journalist and political figure who lived in the area.

Platforms

Salisbury station has two platforms consisting of an island platform. Platform 1 is used for outbound services and platform 2 is used for inbound services. To the west of the station is the dual gauge track for services to and from Sydney and the Gold Coast.
