Not to take away from the complaints by the ETU, though – electricians are hardly something you want to skimp on for a fully electrified train network 🤦‍♂️

The signalling system for the Sydney Trains network is ancient, to say the least – if we weren’t dragging our feet to implement ETCS signalling, it would’ve been resolved much more quickly (plus it’d allow trains to run at 160 km/h instead of 115 km/h)

You’re digging your own grave, the Metro shows the way forward in eliminating fat.
