While the railway line through Minnamurra opened in 1887, the station didn't open until four years later. In 1943, it moved to its present location. The station has no platform building and is not staffed. Electric multiple unit trains began to service the station from November 2001.[5]
Despite some interest from local politicians, a perennial proposal to close Minnamurra and Bombo stations in favour of a new stop in the centre of Kiama Downs has not progressed.[6]

gollark: I really need some way to make the Soviet national anthem come out less... garbled.
gollark: The main difference between real electricity and RF is just RF can be much more conveniently stored. Everything has nice buffers in it.
gollark: You can conveniently accumulate it in machine buffers, there are no voltages or AC vs DC or direction or resistance/impedance to worry about, no weird electromagnetic things going on, machines will just run at lower speed if you're lacking power (I experienced this while running my entire machine setup off a cheap 5RF/t solar panel on kukipack).
gollark: It's meant to be energy, but it *works* as if it's basically just a fluid.
gollark: Also RF-powered furnaces, because RF is just so weird itself.
