Only on days of major race events at nearby Eagle Farm and Doomben race tracks did a few special services run on the line, and only to adjoining stations of Ascot and Doomben. Passenger services resumed on 27 January 1998, but only as far as Doomben with bus connections to the other abandoned stations. The temporary railway station was used while the track was being lowered to eliminate the 1 in 50 gradient from Eagle Junction and the Sandgate Road level crossing.
