History

Auburn station opened in 1877. The station was rebuilt in 1913 and again in 1954 when the line was quadrupled.

The original subway underneath the platforms was closed in the 1990s, replaced by a new subway further east, which remains in use to this day.

The station was upgraded in 2007 with new lifts and tiling by Haslin Constructions for RailCorp at a cost of $5.5 million.
