QR decided to close the tracks 12 months in advance for the regular track maintenance, it was the Glink who decided to open the light rail on the same week as track works
Great tram system cheap travel from gold Coast to helensvale in 35 minutes smooth ride sit back and enjoy the trip great for tourists who don't drive and not familiar with the gold Coast. Tram run frequently every 7.5 minutes in both directions to pacific fair and back.
Stunning video mate. This new part of the line is going to be very successful, just like the existing GC University to Broadbeach South line. It is just ironic that the opening day coincided with the day maintenance was operating on the QR Gold Coast line. The news came out with some good puns because of this hahah, like "The missing link", that I saw in your other video.
Tanki Divide also there is a indicator before the junction that would tell the driver where he's going, it's probably also set up like that so trams don't cue over the points meaning the points can be reset straight away
Enjoyed your upload. A comprehensive look at the new extension, which is a big bonus for the Gold Coast.

Warren Transportation Videos thanks mate
It's pretty cool when they speed up!
I was on the Gold Coast when they were testing it. I figured if they were up to testing it wouldn't be long before they opened it.
I was not wrong.
Yep!
its weird that the light rail platforms are numbered as 4 and 5 rather then 3 and 4 since there is no platform 3 at helensvale
Blood Dragon I’ve never been there but in a majority of transport station hubs they have platform numbers across all modes such as trains, buses exit.
the bus stop at the station is not a numbered platform and there is only a island platform for heavy rail labelled one and 2
Yes you would think since the train platforms are 1 and 2, then the light rail would be 3 and 4?
I was there that day but I left Brisbane at like 10ish

cam van nguyen yes?
Are those strange junctions as you leave GCUH done like that so drivers know which way they are going early?
Not sure...
Tanki Divide it's probably done for the track sensors so the right arrow is only given to trams that want it
Yes and that...
Tanki Divide also there is a indicator before the junction that would tell the driver where he's going, it's probably also set up like that so trams don't cue over the points meaning the points can be reset straight away
