Great work Bob - thanks for the photos for those that couldn't be there... a great milestone in improving public transport outcomes!!!

Thanks for the photos. Couldn't make it due to family reasons.

I like those new PIDs. Wonder if they will also be used to replace the old ones at Helensvale, Nerang, Coomera and Robina?

I got there around 1 and we went up and down the corridor once, got some photos at a few stations but because of the rain I didn't end up staying as much as I would've liked to. Will probably go up there another weekend to check it out on a more sunny day.
