I've heard that G516 and a CL are off the tracks at Acacia Ridge.

Please don't quote me on this, but I have it, from an "unreliable source", this is another attempt to delay the daily workings of PN at Acacia Ridge. This "unreliable source" also stated that QR have run-out of "time wasting" procedures to implement to fight PN at Acacia Ridge, now the focus seems to be destroying infrastructure because the new procedures have failed to be a hindrance to PN's on-time running!

Well, in that regard, QRNational have been quite successful. I believe many southbound services (including QRNational Intermodal Services) have been delayed by the derailment.

There is NO WAY that is *not* being Quoted For Truth. Shocked

True or not, that is an *extraordinary* thing to say. Kinda makes posts about Hunter Valley train driving pale into insignificance, doesn't it?



All comments made by myself are as a private citizen, and are not made on behalf of QR.

I think you have lost a lot of your street cred there citing someone else's (unreliable) (nasty) opinion.

Better to have left it in the gutter where it belongs.

You guys can't see the humor!

I, myself, really doubt there would be an agenda to rip-up infrastructure around the country to delay the opposition, but lets face it, QRN have been doing a great job of it over the last couple of years.

Seriously, any one reading this involved in those QRN incidents, I didn't mean to offend you!

I saw it instantly. The absurdity of your post told me that you were joking.
