[edit] CityTrain Box

The majority of the lines in the "citytrain box" were the wrong way round (they had, for example, Brunswick St as the preceding station on the northern lines, and the southern lines as the next; whilst Brunswick St has Central as the preceding, and Bowen Hills, heading north, as the next). So I switched them all around. FiggyBee 07:24, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Partial re-write and restructure

I thought the article was a bit messy and thought it could be structured like the Sydney Central railway station. In addition, I thought the introduction "ie Central Station is a station in Brisbane, it is in Zone 1 of Translink system etc".. should be at the top and consistent with the other railway articles. I also updated the platform information and added Rosewood since a few peak-hr services continue to Rosewood.

To conclude, I also added notes in "platform info" that most Rosewood services depart from Ipswich and additional off-peak Nambour bus and train services depart from Caboolture. -- Arnzy | Talk 15:13, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Photos Gallery

I thought it would be good to add a Photo gallery to this article & also some other stations. good idea or not? Qld matt 11:09, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

• Yes it would be a good idea, like Cultural Centre Busway Station matt-(my page-leave me a message) 16:57, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hotel

Is the station really "in front of the Sofital Hotel"? Last time I was in Briz it was the Sheraton Hotel. There is a chain called Sofitel. Thortful 11:54, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Yes. The Sheraton is now the Sofitel, I stayed there recently. FiggyBee 23:37, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] left luggage

can I leave my suitcase at the central station while looking around Brisbane for the day

Thanks

As far as I recall, there are lockers at both Central and Roma St - however, a lot of lockers have been removed from transport facilities recently for security reasons. I'd suggest you ring QR on 131617 (within Australia) to check. FiggyBee 12:59, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Coordinates

I have added coordinates (using the {{coor title dms}} tag.

Should the {{coor at dms}} tag be used as part of the infobox template (like Pittsburgh International Airport and Template:Airport infobox) ? --RobBrisbane 23:48, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
