They are an amalgam of boring soulless American sourced components with an Iveco label slapped on with a tube of Bostick liquid nails from the nearest Bunnings outlet. Are Bunn...

Perhaps its all because NSW regional services are compulsory booked seats and require payment when booking, so Opal isn't needed.

I was waiting for a 310 at Eastgardens this afternoon, which just managed to limp to the stop from the standing area. After some fiddling the operator climbed out, went to the the side, came back and it started. 'Someone turned off the gas' was the comment.

This is the SMH these days: attack selective schools on the odd days, and dig something up about Sydney Trains on the even days. Just bear in mind that the SMH has been reporting for much of the year that TfNSW has major IT issues and that this was demonstrated to be correct last Saturday morning.
