Hey Don, QR is currently looking for part-time trainee Citytrain drivers. Pays about $57k plus penalty rates for a 30 hour week. $57k is about $NZ 8 million I think :lol: . Come back now!

Am quiet happy driving the old deisel tourist train . 2 weeks ago we had it flying , cracked the magic 20 kmh ( 21kmh to be exact on my GPS ) . Much more cruizy than Citytrain , do they get to chase farmers Browns cows off the line or wave to all the kids as we drive our train down the main street ( true ) . My pay rate for this is ZERO , but I luvs it :D

No, no cows but the kids down Beenleigh way have recently been throwing rocks at the drivers. Smashed one bloke's windscreen, fortunately the rock didn't get through the laminated glass. One set of idiots, probably the same ones, blocked the track and then pelted the driver with rocks when he stopped the train and got out to clear the obstruction. Some people just shouldn't be breeding.
