Got caught up in that this morning while on my way to Fortitude Valley.  Scheduled arrival was 8:43am, actual arrival was 9:12am (when I got through the gates), going by my Go Card. Took approximately 15 minutes to travel from South Brisbane to Roma Street, then another 15 minutes to travel from Roma Street to Fortitude Valley.
