I believe that South Brisbane used to be the interstate train station before they built the rail…read morebridge across the river. Then again, the only other state that can be reached by rail happens to be New South Wales, which is to the south. You could get to South Australia, but there isn't a railway that is able to take you there. Anyway, the station itself is actually quite nice, though I did find the elevators to be pretty slow. Also, trains don't come as often as I'd like them to.

I love how convenient this train station is. It's across the road from GOMA, SLQ, the Museum, the…read moreLyric Theatre, Southbank Parklands and Grey St and is a short stroll to West End. Weirdly I used to forget this and get off at Central, however I've finally learned and now use this as an access point to one of my favourite areas of the inner city. I also like how it's one of the only original buildings in the area. Thankfully the renovation has been pretty thoughtful so most of the old school ambiance is still evident.

Really, there isn't all that much to say, other than it is close to the city, and the trains, sort of, regularly pass through here. Nothing fancy at all, though like a lot of stations, it is rather accessible.

Then again that isn't necessarily a bad thing, namely because it makes the place feel like it is a subway. The station is also reasonably close to one of the major sporting parks as well, though I say reasonably because it is still a bit of a hike.

My cab company allegiances in Brisbane were weak until I discovered the Yellow Cabs Brisbane iPhone…read moreapp. The thing is a godsend. I don't catch a lot of cabs, but I downloaded the app when I first stumbled across it almost a year ago, and then its true test came the night of the Brisbane Festival 2011 Riverfire. All the cab phone lines were engaged and I was desperate, when I remembered the app. I plugged in a login (I advise you sign up when you first get the app, to save you a bit of time when you actually need a cab), clicked "iHail", entered a destination... and grinned like a kid with a lollipop when my cab showed up less than five minutes later. I could hardly believe it. I've used the app ever since, every time I've needed a cab (including rounding up friends at New Years, another "all phone lines engaged" situation). I've also converted a number of friends to it, by using it when I'm with them, basically letting the service sell itself. Cabs show up so quickly every time - you don't have the luxury of finishing your make-up or your coffee. Plug your request in and then get out to the footpath. You can also see on a map where your cab is when it accepts your booking, you can view past jobs and duplicate them for new bookings if they're for the same addresses, and you can find your closest Yellow Cabs ranks. What's even better is knowing that the app company, Mobile Tracking and Data Pty Ltd, supports a cab company in almost every capital city (not always Yellow Cabs).
