TramlineOpening1947
Chermside, Queensland
(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.)
Chermside is a suburb on the north side of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Chermside is the intended terminus point of Brisbane Transport's future Northern Busway. Chermside is home to one of Brisbanes largest Westfield shopping centres which now contains a 3 story Myer and a 16 screen cinema complex. Together with Indooroopilly, in the west; Carindale, in the southeast; and Mount Gravatt, on the south side; the suburb has been described as a mini-CBD. The Chermside area was first settled by Europeans in the late 19th century. The first plot of land was sold on 23 May 1866, and the population has increased steadily since then. In November 1868 Cobb & Co. stagecoaches began to travel through Chermside on the way to the goldfields at Gympie. Brisbane's tramway network finally reached the suburb on the 29 March 1947, and Chermside remained the northernmost point on the system until the line to Chermside was closed on 2 December 1968. The tram line along Gympie Road was separated from other traffic (this is commonly called "reserved track"), which resulted in fast travel times along this portion of the route. Another feature of the Chermside tram line were the rose gardens which bordered the reserved track portion of the line. A picture of the Chermside tram line can be viewed at [1]. Originally named Downfall Creek, the suburb's name was change to Chermside in 1903 after the then Governor of Queensland, Major-General Sir Herbert Chermside Chermside has many outdoor recreational facilities, including two large parks, 7th Brigade Park, and Marchant Park - on land donated 9 September 1921 by soft drink manufacturer George Marchant. Before and during World War I this land had been variously the home of artillery and light horse units. During World War II a diverse range of volunteers, soldiers, and camps were at Chermside, such as U.S. Army units, including a number of African American soldiers. A Kitty Hawk plane on a training flight crashed there in 1943, killing the pilot and instructor.
