The End Of The Line: 1 - Emu Plains

#SydneyTrains done fucked up again

Well that’s a sticker I’ve never seen before on #sydneytrains…

Track works on the long weekend, #SydneyTrains are you freaking kidding me?! Does anyone know if the replacement buses have room for bikes, I had a weekend bike tour planned in the southern highlands 🤦‍♀️ #Sydney

RT @jxeeno (from his Twitter)

the entire suburban section of Central Walk has now opened 🎉

When satellite photo maps were the hot new thing in 2005, #SydneyTrains #CityRail made their last known effort to improve the Devonshire Street tunnel. They opened a competition to design new murals, and I burned my PowerMac's dual G4 CPUs down to the ground to produce this frankenstein image with "morphing technology"

@ajsadauskas@lemmy.ml On the same day NSW votes, there's now major train cancellations again across Western Sydney.

A fitting reminder of what's happened to train reliability across Sydney under the Perrottet government: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-03-25/sydney-trains-cancelled-delayed/102145600

Another hectic day for #SydneyTrains. At least today I'm only going 4 stops with the pay-off of a beach swim!

I’m on it…

I feel this might be a very slow ride

#SydneyTrains

Right, I’ve eaten and now waiting for the next train towards the city.

#Sydneytrains

Picked an excellent day to come to the uni - #SydneyTrains had a huge outage and now the network looks #cooked "Please don't use the trains" isn't great advice when buses don't run to where you want to be...

#SydneyTrains services are in a major shutdown currently: all trains, suburban and Intercity stuck. Be warned:

@T2commuter
It's crazy how much sketchy looking water it dripping from the ceiling on platform 4!

#Sydneytrains

#SydneyTrains #DigitalOpal - Transport NSW introduced a new trial to their Digital Opal card. It signs you up with a subscription which is charged weekly regardless of your usage.
Over Christmas I didn't use it and was charged over $60. I didn't understand this new pricing, so cancelled.
Apparently cancelling switches you to pay as you go! But they don't credit you back any $$ that were unused.
They finally emailed saying I've forfeited the money and am being charged moving forward.
#CityFail

Police obbo at #BondiJunction station. No trains in or out for the foreseeable. Sirens and cops everywhere. I may be home late. #SydneyTrains

IME, #SydneyTrains’ #Twitter feed was often 30 mins ahead of formal or informal *internal* comms—savvy customers were aware of network disruptions long before even signallers knew something was awry.

It wasn’t a reliable channel for critical incidents, but that extra half-hour lead time was, firstly, a godsend organising contingency crew and rolling stock, and secondly, mitigated frontline customer service looking like complete twats.

Okay, anyone know what is happening with #sydneyTrains ? #Sydney #trains

One of the Canadians is stuck in the city with no trains back

Trains are free today. Toot. Toot! #Sydneytrains

How commuting has changed in 3 years! I used to catch the train home from the city every afternoon. Come 5pm, and Town Hall Station was an absolute madhouse, people everywhere, queues for the gates, crowds on the platform, not a spare seat available in the carriage.

Now, catching the train back from the city at 5:30pm is like it's a weekend. I'm in a three seater alone, and there's a six-facer free! It's so weird.

Sydney trains always reeks of piss. Pls enact fair wages and working conditions so we can have clean, safe trains #sydney #sydneytrains
