24 hour strike in Queensland

["Dave Proctor" <daproc@spambait.ozemail.com.au>]

According to the 8am bulletin on Sky News Australia QR were inforrmed after
2300 last night that there would be a 24 hour strike starting at midnight by
members of the RBTU (or is it RTBU?)

Some Traveltrain services will continue to their destination (according to
the QR spokesperson who was interviewed) being personned by AFULE members.

Would this have any bearing on Countrylink, Freightcorp or NR services
(because of involvement of signallers, etc)?

The spokesperson said that some arrangements had been made with various bus
lines, but also mentioned that due to lack of notice, no arrangements had
been made with Brisbane Council for rail tickets to be used on their buses
(so it is going to be hard to get into the city then).
