He "tried to interact" with the woman before he "touched himself", according to police.

When the woman confronted him, the man got off the train at Eagle Junction station before boarding another train and getting off at Nudgee station.

The woman supplied photographs of the alleged offender to detectives.

Anyone who recognises the man or has any information should contact Policelink on 13 14 44 or Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.
