Contemporaneously with parliamentary approval for the Murgon-to-Proston railway line came authorisation for a branch line from Barlil, the first station on the Proston line, 20 kilometres (12 mi) north to Windera in south-east Queensland, Australia.
On Saturday 28 March 1925, the railway line from Barlil to Windera was officially opened by Alfred James Jones, the Minister for Mines and formerly the Member of the Queensland Legislative Assembly for Burnett.[1] The line passed through sidings at Warnung, Cloyna, and Kitoba. Its existence was never really justified[2] despite handling regular pig and cream traffic plus occasional livestock. The uneconomic branch closed from 1 July 1961.
