History

Keswick station was opened on 6 April 1913.[1] Within months of opening, a station master was appointed to manage bulk goods business, including firewood and sand bricks.[2] A ticket office was added in 1927.[3] The station lay adjacent to Adelaide Parklands Terminal.

The station was closed and demolished in March 2013 during the closure of the Noarlunga) and Tonsley lines, in preparation for the electrification of those lines.[4] At the time of its closure, it was the only station on the Adelaide suburban system without wheelchair access^{[citation needed]}, the steep terrain and sparse patronage being prohibitive. A new Adelaide Showground station south of the Keswick Bridge opened on 17 February 2014, replacing Keswick as well as the annual temporary Showground Central station.[5][6]
