SEQ:  Thanks to Queensland Rail  for recovering the Ipswich - Rosewood line

RAIL Back On Track (http://backontrack.org) a web based community support group for rail and public transport and an advocate for public transport commuters has thanked Queensland Rail for the marvellous effort in recovering the Ipswich - Rosewood line.

Robert Dow, Spokesman for RAIL Back On Track said:

"The flood damage to the Ipswich - Rosewood line was major. To have the line back in operation so soon is a marvellous result.  The effort by the track and repair gangs and their support crews is greatly appreciated."

"A storm late this afternoon caused a temporary issue but this too was soon resolved by the hard working Queensland Rail team."

"There is a lot more recovery work yet to be done on the rail network throughout Queensland, but we are grateful for the outstanding recovery effort made for the community by returning the Ipswich - Rosewood line back to normal services.  Thank you and well done!"
