    http://www.illawarramercury.com.au/story/4968627/rail-raid-to-catch-sleeping-workers-stops-trains/?cs=300


    A push to catch rail employees sleeping on the job may have led to the cancellation of some South Coast services on Wednesday morning.
    NSW TrainLink reported that an “operational issue at Sydenham” affected several Sydney-bound South Coast services between 1am and 6am.
    Sydenham is where the signallers who control the Illawarra line through Sutherland are based.
    The system is computer-controlled with the signallers on hand to respond to monitor it and react to alarms.
    The “operational issue” caused major delays as buses replaced trains between Waterfall and Oatley in both directions.

    A NSW TrainLink spokesman said services had been suspended on Wednesday morning “due to an unusually high volume of illness amongst staff who operate our signal control panels”.
    “Services were up and running in time for the morning peak,” the TrainLink spokesman said.
    “We apologise to customers who were affected.”
    However a rail employee who spoke to the Mercury under the condition they remain anonymous, suggested the “unusually high volume of illness” on the night shift may have actually been a protest against increased rates of overtime as well as the actions of a supervisor several weeks ago.
    The source claimed the supervisor launched a “raid” on the signallers’ HQ a few weeks ago in a bid to find workers asleep.
    The source said the plan backfired and the workers were awake.
    The employee suggested it was further frustration for the workers who are already in protracted negotiations for a new enterprise bargaining agreement that will protect those made redundant when a new rail operations centre opens up next year.
    The Rail Tram and Bus Union was contacted for comment on the cause of events of Wednesday morning.
    A spokeswoman said they had not been able to get any information on what had happened.

    ABC footage is of Strathfield not Central.

    The footage appears to be reversed edited, probably to deceive the viewers (opportunistic journalism at its worst).
    View is definitely looking over old parcels office and Countrylink Travel Centre Building on to Platform 8. If looking from Strathfield Plaza side the old building should be on the right of screen.

    Should know because I was the Site Manager refurbishing the old Trakfast building to contain the Countrylink TC back in 1991.

    Happy for this to go in a new thread if the moderators like given the title of this one.

    Derailment of freight train at Mittagong this morning. Currently on the train from Goulburn to Sydney (hopefully) being held at Moss Vale. Told there’s at least an hour delay.

    Pure speculation here but judging by a short video I took of a freight passing over the mud hole on the pedestrian crossing at Bundanoon earlier this week, I’m not surprised. Hopefully, no one is hurt and the derailment isn’t too serious.
