Australia: Major disruptions reported on Brisbane trains as of the morning of Nov. 4

Significant rail disruptions are ongoing across Brisbane's train network as of the morning of Nov. 4. Services on the Caboolture, Redcliffe Peninsula, and Sunshine Coast lines are suspended between Petrie and Northgate Stations due to a vehicle in contact with a power line in Carseldine; all other train services are facing 15-minute delays. Limited replacement buses are available for affected commuters. Officials have not provided a timeline for the resumption of normal services.

Lingering disruptions, including delays and cancellations, will probably continue until repair works are concluded. Increased congestion and increased demand are likely on alternative forms of transport.
