A small group called the Murwillumbah Railway Historical Society had made a proposal to re-open the line from the Condong Sugar Mill to Ocean Shores railway station and run it as a heritage railway and museum. The museum would be based at Murwillumbah railway station and would be a major tourist attraction for the local area. It will be run on a club basis and would rely on grants and donations. This would preserve the railway track and infrastructure for the future use of a passenger service. The group is awaiting government approval.
