Central Station Brisbane - Take The Train To Explore [Fast, Easy, Affordable And Awesome Staff]

If you don't drive and wish to visit places out side of Central Brisbane, take the train from Central Station which is located along Ann Street. The trains are clean and comfortable, as well as enjoyable. The train journey shows the difference between the city and other parts of Brisbane, as well as Queensland, which is equally amazing.

 There is an awesome team of rail staff. They are cheerful, friendly and help with a smile.

If you need help getting into the train just speak to the staff. The staff are friendly and very helpful.
A cheerful male staff was happy to show us the platform and the right train to board to Gold Coast. There was a lady staff at another station helping wheelchair users and mothers with prams. The rail staff are on the platform, ready to help.

 

The best time for travelling is during non peak hours as you can safe money and get a seat. There are priority seating on the train, it is important to give these seats to those who need it if you decide to sit while it is empty. The wonderful thing about the people travelling by these trains is that they get up immediately from the priority seats when someone who needs them enters, that is the way it should be.

It is great there are toilets in the train, which can be used by those using wheelchairs. Queensland Rail has made it possible for all to travel comfortably

.

What is great about travelling by train is that you get to see different parts of Brisbane and other parts of Queensland. There are parts where you will be able to see houses, farms and
lots more when you take the train to stations which are further away from Brisbane city. It is a great way to see Queensland. There are  many places outside Brisbane such as the famous Gold Coast [about an hour train ride], Sunshine Coast, Chevron Island and many more awesome places which I was able to visit on a day trip by taking the train.
