History
Residents in the Fassifern Valley petitioned the Queensland Government to build a railway line to their district, and the first section of the Dugandan railway line was opened on 10 July 1882 as far as Harrisville. This is considered to be Queensland's first branch railway. Churchill was served by the Churchill railway station at Lobb Street (Script error: No such module "Coordinates".).[3][4] The branch was extended to Dugandan on 12 September 1887.[5][6] The line from Churchill to Dugandan closed in 1964 with the remaining line being known as the Churchill branch railway.[5]
In 1913 a Baptist Church opened in Churchill.[7][8] A stump-capping ceremony was held on Saturday 28 March 1913.[9][10] On Saturday 9 August 1913, volunteers erected the church in four-and-a-quarter hours using the rapid building technique (with prefabricated parts). The work commenced at 2pm and was finished at 6:15pm for the official opening.[11][12][13]
