New technology to make the train network more efficient was tested last week, so “we can run more trains more often and more tightly together”.

As commuters slept one night last week, a coastal track in Brisbane’s north-east played host to crucial testing of the future of Queensland’s train travel.

It relays information between the train and the rail control centre via a radio system, trackside technology and onboard equipment.“This technology allows a continuous flow of information of the train – its direction, its speed, all those sorts of things – to the control centre, so we can run more trains more often and more tightly together, and it’s much safer than the current signalling system,” he said.

Bailey said the new signalling system was part of the build up to the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
