Off-peak trains now cross at Beerwah.

One thing I've noticed recently with the new TT is the off-peak trains are now crossing at Beerwah.  

At Beerwah, Platform 1 is used by Northbound trains, and Platform 2 by Southbound trains.  In the vast majority of cases, the Southbound (City) trains now waits for 3 minutes whilst the Northbound train makes it way from Glasshouse Mountains.  I'm not sure what the others think, but would calling for the bringing forward of the Glasshouse-Beerwah duplication improve things reliability-wise, whilst bringing benefits for freight paths?

On a gunzel's note, at least you'd be able to take photos of 2 IMUs side by side at Beerwah now.

No, I think we should push for Beerburrum-Glass House, which would be more reliable as trains don't twice need to enter a single track section, and would allow an hourly frequency to Landsborough.  IIRC.
