    Posted in Victoria » Z Car update

    as there is an upcoming change for V/line, I was just wondering about the progress of the Z cars being returned to service. I was on my way back to Warrnambool from Melbourne in a group of 20 and after boarding the train we were informed that we had to get on a bus due to our train only having 3 carriages. Fair to say our group had our own dedicated bus and it ran express to Warrnambool arriving 20 minutes ahead of schedule. I also see that Shepparton has been getting H sets due to carriage shortage. How many are still out of Service? And how many have returned to service?
    Thanks, NR1
