New Trains

There are the first of the 44 new suburban electric trains going into service this month and Rene and I caught one going to the NAIDOC celebrations last Friday. Very smart, very quiet and seemed to have greater power when accelerating from the station. Good initiative.

Brisbane City Council is looking at trialing the super buses as used in Utrecht, 25m long triple units with a capacity of 200. Brilliant idea, they work so well in Holland, they should be superb here in Brisbane.
