    Cant wait for the Queensland government to blame this on the unions

  2. If only there was some way of people working from elsewhere other than the office. Hmmm.

    The translink app timing will be out by about an hour. Ridiculous lines at Geebung for the rail bus

    This is why I just get off at [REDACTED] and catch the bus instead, or walk up to Northgate Road on the other side of the station and catch a bus there. Railbusses are always the worst way to get there, but I’m glad they exist for those without other options.

    Northgate has a train to the city every 3 minutes in peak hour which has been replaced by a rail bus every 8 minutes. Ridiculous.

  6. Do TMR just forget that people have to actually work during school holidays?

    It’s like they were expecting everyone to be on leave for another week.

    Edit: guys I am complaining about lack of buses, not the track closures. Track closures are a good thing because it means money is being spent on our rail network, however TMR constantly fail to schedule sufficient buses to cope with the amount of passengers who still need to travel. Buses this morning were being crammed so full that people had to sit on the floor.

    Get the bus – I’m on an express atm and it’s on my half full 4 k out

    I am so glad I am not working right now. That looks fucking horrendous. 😢

  9. Brisbane is always closing down the trains. Is this normal? Does the New York Subway shut down every other week?

    I’m part of that rail bus replacement, did 12 hour shift yesterday, getting home at 230am this morning, Starting again at 230pm to today, The problem is pure logistics ,

    Brisbane desperately needs a single, independent transit authority. I wonder if this issue would’ve been less severe if that was the case?

  12. Northgate (and Nundah to a lesser extent) are also big thoroughfares are there’s no other easy way to cross the train tracks. I feel so bad for anyone trying to walk through this too. I had so many people try to walk into me when I was trying to cross it over the weekend.

  13. Busses, as in the plural of buss “to press one’s lips upon another’s cheek”.

    I too would be pissed off if I had to wait hours with no busses ready. Treat your commuters with a little respect!

    (The plural you are looking for is buses).

  14. The LNP run our state. They are ACTIVELY hostile to any transportation that doesn’t drive on a road.

    Expecting anything different than incompetence and neglect is expecting too much. But frankly this is what Queenslanders voted for.

    Shhh shhh. Don’t insult trampling/qRail in here. It upsets a lot of weirdos.
