History

left|thumb|Station concourse overpass and entrance, March 2017

On 28 August 2000, a third platform opened as part of the addition of a third track from Northgate to Bald Hills.

In June 2013, a construction crew of an overpass at the Geebung railway station in northern Brisbane uncovered the 50-million-year-old fossilized remains (vertebrae) of a 5-metre crocodile trapped in a layer of oil shale. Workers drilling holes as part of an overpass reach the crocodile remains, as well as frogs, fish and plant fossils, in the spoil, the oil shale rock and soil found in the excavation pit. The fossil remains were discovered by a work crew drilling a hole for a bridge support over an area called the Zillman Waterholes.

In 2014, the level crossing to the south of the station was replaced by a bridge.
