Also a bridge strike this morning as well.

The 5:47am Caboolture to Central train is running express from Petrie to Eagle Junction due to a road vehicle striking a rail bridge.

They changed these information posters only to change the colour. How… Petty.

Same line with track closures every other weekend…

You do realise those closures aren’t for track maintenance? They’re mostly CRR-related.

The worst part is that they arent using the closure for general maintenence.

Why can’t they do both?
From the service update the track fault was on the Beenleigh stretch of the Gold Coast Line which it shares with Beenleigh as that had a similar service update. Isn’t the beenleigh section looked at a LOT at the present with LGCFR and CRR rolling out?

Because possession is by CRRDA, not QR. It’s pretty irrelevant anyway, as the track fault was at Edens Landing, a section that isn’t regularly closed for CRR works. Last closure was 6-7 December 2025, so basically two months ago.

You might better ask why there was a signal fault at Carseldine this week, despite a maintenance closure the previous weekend.

Noticed some trains looking more beat the usual - train wash out of action?

Also is there terminators at Lota now? Theres a blank train stopped there when I’ve been through the past few times
