Extra stabling at Robina will be beneficial as track capacity in the reverse peak direction is restricted due to express, empty, and all stations services running on one track on the Gold Coast/Beenleigh Line.
Evening peak service to Enoggera* 2007 - 7tph
Evening peak service to Enoggera* 2010 - 4tph
* departures from Central between 16:30 and 17:30.

Duplication of the rail track between Helensvale and Robina was completed in August 2008.

Duplication Ormeau to Coomera completed 2006.
When did they do Beenleigh-Ormeau?

Don't know for sure but I assume it was done as part of the initial construction.

Half baked projects, have long term consequences ...

Beenleigh to Ormeau was double track from the start.

Does this mean that pre-2006 frequency couldn't rise above 30 minutes even in peak times?  I presume that's also what we needed the Salisbury-Kuraby triplication for.
