I thought the plan was to funnel everything through the Airport tunnels given there will now be extra capacity, and to free up extra space much needed for the T4? Have the Airport tunnel signalling upgrades been delayed?

Shocking air quality on rail network threatens passengers and staff February 20, 2024 — 5.00am Warning: Sydney’s underground train system is a health hazard. Passengers and staff are being exposed to poisonous air containing more than twice the safe daily limits for particle pollution. And of furth...

Macquarie Fields prioritised for TAP upgrades. It will be 2026, at earliest, by the time the station will become accessible, but at least we know it is coming after decades of "prioritisation", and advocacy whilst Casula, an even quieter station got lifts in conjunction with upgrades assoc...

It astounds me not even just a little bit of the lower half of train guard bodies are not protected in such a way in Sydney, in Australia, in this country: https://soranews24.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2019/04/nis1021005_tp_v.jpg?resize=640,426 Is there also any reason why they can't hold out a ...

What impacts will this have on 870/871/872, buses get cancelled without notice with no info on the apps.

Just thought I'd start a new thread for anticipated discussion about new bus routes which would provide direct public transport links from Campbelltown, Liverpool and Penrith until more established rapid rail transit is built and operational. https://www.transport.nsw.gov.au/projects/current-project...

The route via Waterloo is a little longer, which cancels out the advantage of the metro's higher average speed and shorter dwell. Hence the arguments for a USYD/Zetland alignment. And once the Metro extends to Bankstown the T4 will slow down as it will stop at Erskinevulle and St Peters in place of...

There are still CityRail era colours in the car park of Kogarah station

What about Sydney Trains?

Do we know how we can get copies of the latest current standard timetable, not at the current time of downloading from transportnsw.info?

The performance will be further enhanced with the digital signalling and ATO upgrade which will no longer rely on driver operation other than starting the train from the station, monitoring the system and taking over manual control in an emergency. Is this increased performance expected as part of ...

Fair point, however I did catch an packed express peak service yesterday between Sydenham & Glenfield which only stopped at Holsworthy. In the 20 or so minutes non-stop we hit 115km/h just after Bexley & kept that rate until Holsworthy. Now if the existing track, signalling, rolling stock &...

The trains travelling at the near maximum allowable speeds would be non-revenue services anyway. They don't make it easy for Customers to benefit from high speeds that easily in Sydney to make the overall journey from the suburbs into the CBD faster. How familiar are you with the actual old timetabl...

Some would say that Bankstown metro will have an impairing impact on the suburban heavy rail network, but if the remainder of the T3 line between Lidcombe and Liverpool exists, and there will still be rail tracks between Wolli Creek and Redfern via Sydenham, T8 Trains can still redivert via these ar...

‘We haven’t got the drivers’: Bus replacement for 12-month rail closure to cause chaos ByMatt O'Sullivan January 8, 2024 — 5.00am Sydney does not have enough bus drivers or buses to run the additional 1400 services needed every weekday to replace trains when a busy suburban rail line is shut for a ...

I was at Chatswood station today on platforms 3 and 4. A man in Metro uniform approached and asked was I looking to ride on the N.W. metro because it wasn't running this weekend. I asked why. He said it wasn't because of trackwork; it was because of testing for the forthcoming service to Sydenham. ...

Started on select ferry routes.. and you had to fill in a form and mail it in to get the card. While I still have my original card, I've shifted the balance to a new one, due to the extra beeps warning of expiry (since multiple times extended) Neutral Bay Ferry line to be exact, then it was more fe...

Have they been extending the maximum life of the cards because of a current global chip shortage which is affecting Pasmo and Suica in Japan, for example?

https://southwestvoice.com.au/free-mobile-chargers-liverpool/ Why is money even being spent on something like this? It only encourages loitering and crowding around railway station concourse areas. I can imagine it may be useful distraction for instances where, for example, a consistently poorly tim...

Nothing to do with NSW. It suggests in some places, in the English language, nice and clearly, that there is an official contingency plan in place which is disclosed in an transparent way and published publicly in a manner that is detailed, in order and precise. I was trying to shed some light on w...

Was informed that Vline has official, public facing timetables. Is there an internal alternative, slower timetable when the WOLO signs are unveiled? https://www.vline.com.au/Timetables/heat

Can further publicly disclosed information be provided in relation to a train at Holsworthy and a fire last night around 9:15PM?
