This was a natural front page story for the Glasshouse Country News, given that it circulates to most of the Sunshine Coast southern 'railway towns'.  This region is the equivalent of the Southern Highlands or the Blue Mountains, where commuters have an enbarrasing choice of train services in comparison to their Sunny Coast counterparts.  Just look at the timetable for trains to Katoomba and Lithgow.
