Brisbane's Train Timetable Will Not Go On Holidays

Queensland Rail has announced Brisbane’s train timetable will not go on holidays for the first time in 18 months.

Following the opening of the Redcliffe Peninsula Line in October 2016, hundreds of services were cancelled due to a shortage of available train drivers.

However, for the first time since the driver supply issue affected services a year and a half ago, services will continue as normal during the upcoming June-July school holidays.

Brisbane Philanthropist Disgusted by Public's Perception of Homelessness

Hairstylist and philanthropist, Jak Vaessen, who has previously raised more than $1 million dollars for local charities, was left disgusted, after a 24 hour sleep out in Brisbane’s CBD.

Vaessen said the sleep out was in response to the upcoming St Vinnies Sleepout.

Instead of sleeping with city leaders and other activists at the Brisbane Powerhouse for a night, Vaessen slept in the CBD and was surprised when only one person offered to help him.
