Or 25 mins by car. Brisbane - home of failed public transport.

and in your car you can sit down, eat, drink, listen to music etc. Cant even take a coffee on the train .

that train is awful. The seats are awful. it stops at every damn station.

its like 1hr going round in circles on london underground train.I truly feel sorry for those who have to use it every day.

I don't know where Redland is, so when I saw this thread I thought it was going to be about one of those Great Railway Journeys in the world!

This thread actually has potential to be one of the truely great threads of BE. It's defo in with a great chance of taking the "Most boring thread on BE" title... and that's saying something. !!


Now Mr ABCD.. can you give me the details for Kiama to Central. Thanks.

So how long would it take by car, in the rush hour? I have a reason for asking

spalen

40-60 minutes depending on where in the CBD you landed and where in 'cleveland' you started.

Jolly poor show by the ABC 'Redlands tourist board' diamond... that'll stop people moving there.

ABCDiamond

Yep, I've decided to change tack... I had to wait till the following day for a doctors appointment

ABCDiamond

How far ? as the crow flies or by train track ? Big BIG difference

ABCDiamond

It does depend on exactly where you are going, and how long it takes to find a parking spot. 45 minutes drive + 30 minutes trying to park was about my worst experience.

But of course.... and in animation

This thread could have been far more exciting there should have been a mention of how "cheap" the fare is compared to UK, melbourne, outer mongolia

Bayside sounds really exciting from the threads that come out of there LOL
