Temporary rail line closures: Ballarat, Bendigo and Sydenham

[MMTB Busnut]

The Herald Sun have managed to get a 'sneak peak' of passengers running to get on a Comeng during the closedown, but they haven't said which station it's at:

From the "Who gives a s*** which city the picture's from, it's just a train" department: it's an Adelaide 3000-class at Oaklands Interchange (although, credit where it's due, it's from the recent Noarlunga Line shutdown when passengers had to change modes at Oaklands).

A "sneek Peak!" what a load of crap! There will be lots of people, not this crap of 1 person running for the train!

Operators seen out and about on the suburban runs this morning included:

Dysons, Sita Coaches, Kastoria Bus Lines, Mitchell Transit, Grenda Bus Service, Peninsular Bus Lines, Moorabbin Transit, Cardinia Transit, Invicta Bus Lines, Westrans Werribee, Westrans Sunshine and Cranbourne Transit.

Three of the four contracted Metro rail replacement operators were out and about.

Trains operating very efficiently at both ends. Upside had Comengs and Siemens, downside had short consist Comengs.

I have created a seperate observations thread for this project for all sightings and posts about which particular vehicles are being used on both the regional and metro replacements find the link below
