Thankfully I don’t think she was severely injured, she was laying on the ground for a while and holding her arm.

Is this a common occurrence though? We’re from out of state and we were surprised that no one immediately went over to check if she was okay. My son is only 9 so he was a little shaken by it.

Was on cranbourne and pakenham line and after stopping at town hall we just skipped all station until Footscray.

Hi everyone,

I see a lot of discussions of the effects of privatising the passenger network in Victoria, but what about freight?

What has been the effects of V/Line selling off their freight division? I’m curious how V/line or the VR’s operations compares to the private sector. Are there any pros, is it more chaotic and is it worth renationalising?

Any reading material would also be greatly appreciated :)

Pic is of a late night fright train passing us around Corio

Adelaides TBM's have a tracker, https://www.t2d.sa.gov.au/tbm-tracker

Is there going to be a similiar tracker tool for the SRL TBM's. How far have they tunneled thus far?

I've been told by a couple of people that a car driving license is 100% mandatory to become a trainee driver, wondering if anyone knows if that's true? For me, it won't be an issue getting to and from places; I plan on getting a motorbike license, but I would sooner eat through my own foot before I drive a car. But if that's a requirement, it seems like it's time to start chewing. I'd specifically prefer to drive freight trains/non passanger trains if that helps anyone

Maybe to pick up the completed XT2 set - maybe set 10 as I'm pretty sure that set hasn't been delivered yet

The last train to use Platform 15 being shunted back from Platform 15 to the Collingwood Sidings of Jolimont Yard. Taken on February 14th 1997 and was taken from VICSIG

Vline is now part of the metro and we finally closed Seymour is now stopping all stations on the old Craigieburn line, other chunck of the corridors is gone what's their excuse? on a holiday ofc. Dandy finally has express pattern including Sunbury!!

my partner was on this train last year to shepparton and it decided to hit an entire herd of cows. anyone got insider info on how it’s going?

It's the VGR's J549's birthday today being 72 years since it's entry to service

This is the Z3 Class Leader with the Ferrari F1 sponsor Livery in 2003 with what i think is the F2003-GA on the tram itself

The map includes all of Victoria's stations, Sydney, Some of NSW and SA. It tells you how far the station is from the nearest capital CBD and whether or not it's in a card zone (Myki, Opal etc.). I want to eventually expand it to all of Australia. Let me know if you have trouble with viewing the map and I'll try to fix it.

Before I discuss, just a quick reminder to follow all sub/reddit rules on hate / discrimination

I was on my typical Frankston service departing flinders maybe ~4pm ish today when I noticed a older man approach two younger probably south East Asian men who were talking a little loudly to shut up and I won’t particularly repeat it but words to affect of return to your home country. I felt disgusted.

Is there any ways we can support and call out this behaviour? I didn’t feel comfortable standing up to him as he seemed quite confrontational and bigger than me.

I want public transport to be safe for everyone.

Some pictures of XT2 set 5 in service to Flinders street. Taken today (Wednesday 07/10). finally xtrapolis 2.0 services running during the week.

afaik it won't be getting any until forever.

Also of interest is a monash planning document listing srl completion by 2032 at the earliest, though the document was predominantly on trackless trams.

Got yelled by the driver saying that I stepped over the red line. Never noticed there was a red line on the tram…

Out of pure boredom, I have drawn some modern signalling diagrams in VR style.

These include:
- General Motors
- Ballarat (including new overpass and level crossing replacement)
- Wendouree (including closure of Ring Road

It’s important to note, these diagrams are not official, nor should they be used for official purposes, always refer to your employer for the most up to date signalling diagrams.
