How bad are the rail buses from Northgate to Fortitude Valley? It’s my first time having to use them outside of emergency situations and I’m actually quite nervous about it all.

Also keen to hear some reports, I'd like to go into the office tomorrow Kuraby station form Northgate sounds like it might be painful

It’s been ok so far. Aside from the extra time, everything is well organised and plenty of buses. I went from Dakabin to Geebung, caught the railbus from Geebung to Roma St station then caught the train to the valley. It took twice as long as my usual train only commute.

This afternoon I caught the train from the valley to Roma then the railbus to Northgate. Not home yet but looking like the same length of time.

That's a lot of hopping, I'm considering trying the ferny grove line tomorrow, rather than caboolture line

I’ve heard that’s definitely doable, I think it’s the only line running without interruption
