A Dragon Rapide aeroplane, of Connellan Airways, crashed at Coolibah in 1949. The head stockman, an Aboriginal man named Jack Brumby, was recommended for a gallantry award for rescuing the pilot. In 1953 the station was regarded as the third largest in Australia at the time with an area of 7,000 square miles (18,130 km2). The manager of the day, Hugh Byers, was committed to stand trial for the theft of 88 head of cattle from neighbouring Victoria River Downs Station.
