Changes to some QR loco hauled passenger services

[Graham Duffin <duffin@powerup.com.au>]

I have heard that from Monday 3rd August the following changes will
occur to some QR loco hauled suburban passenger services:

1) 7.34am Mitchelton to South Brisbane will change from diesel hauled
   to electric loco hauled.

2) 7.51am Thorneside to Bowen Hills will change from electric hauled
   to diesel loco hauled.

3) 4.13pm Roma Street to Caboolture will change from electric hauled
   to diesel loco hauled.

4) 5.14pm Roma Street to Mitchelton will change from diesel hauled
   to electric hauled.

The reasons for these changes appear to be:

a) The run around road at Mitchelton has recently been electrified.

b) The turntable at Caboolture is now back in operation.

Is anyone able to confirm the above?
