Travel Etiquette

​Courtesy counts on every journey​​​

Queensland Rail is committed to creating safe and respectful environment for our customers and employees – onboard trains, at stations and at Travel Centres. 

Rail travel is more than getting to your destination – it’s about sharing the journey. When we show respect, kindness and good manners, we create a safer, more enjoyable experience for everyone. Being considerate is simple, but it makes a world of difference.

​Together, we can make the journey not just a way to get around, but a place where kindness comes along for the ride.
