Queensland Railways Patriotic Fund was established in 1914 by the Queensland Railways Department to support railway workers who had enlisted during World War I, as well as their dependents. As part of the fund, a number of fundraising schemes were implemented including charitable subscriptions by employees, public concerts and railway excursions. By April 1918, it was estimated that over 2,350 Queensland railway employees had enlisted since the start of the war.
