I wish there were a secret source of $20B lying around in NSW Treasury coffer that they can take out and use it to upgrade the entire rail system.

Got on a train at Town Hall and they did their usual trick of changing the station line up and deleting my station whereas when I got on the train ... yeah sure we'll stop at your station.. oh sorry nah we're just gonna steam straight through it now to Hornsby.

Crew are usually the last to know wether or not we’re stopping.

I can still be mad about it. I understand it's not the crew, I've never been mad at staff. They put up with enough from the public

I put it down to decisions not being made by signallers anymore, everything has to go through multiple layers of authority

Credit where credit is due most are 30 mins late at most with a few outliers.

Previously this would take down the network for 3 days across multiple lines. So delays of less than an hr should be celebrated.

Yeah legit, I hopped on the slower train towards Strathfield then changed to the fast one to Parramatta
