Last updated: 7.35am Friday 20 July 2012

Ipswich/Rosewood/Richlands line services are running at reduced speed between Wacol and Oxley due to a police incident.

Some services may be delayed up to 10 minutes.

[ozbob]

Only a guess, but sounds like a corridor trespass?  There is a rail over bridge UP from Darra but not open to through traffic as I understand it.

Queensland Rail are looking into the issues I have raised with lack of information in Tweets.

It might be time to be a little more specific.

The damage at Coopers Plains this morning.  The cause is obvious.

I wonder how the boom arm got there?  Looks like someone hit it going in the other direction.

Perhaps it was on the tracks and that was after it was moved???

Buses replacing trains: Landsborough-Nambour

Last updated: 5.39pm Tuesday 31 July 2012

Buses are replacing trains in both directions between Lansdsborough and Nambour stations, stopping all stations. This is due to a police incident.

Customers should expect delays up to 30 minutes during this afternoon's peak.

[Arnz]

TAG along with Cavglass sent a bus each for Landsborough-Nambour rail replacement at short notice. 

Occasionally companies which aren't contracted on rail replacement (such as West's National Coaches and TAG-Sunbus) may be called on rail replacement on short notice (eg police incident shutdowns, sudden track failures or wires down).

Would've thought only a 70 67* seater coach (from Cavglass-Glasshouse Country Coaches) may do for the Landsborough-Nambour run tonight, but I'm guessing there was the DDA requirements, hence a low floor being sent from Sunbus.

*Corrected after checking ATDB fleetlists.
