It is obvious to me that neither DJF or Transtopic have used Central or Town Hall in peak hour. Anybody who has knows what I'm talking about when waiting for your train on a completely packed platform ...

I'm not debating that ATO/ATP is happening or not because I know it is as it is one of the things the waterfall report suggested. My point is that 24 tph is not going to happen just because this signa ...

[quote=Airvan99][quote]This discussion is all irrelevant, because the system is going to be upgraded to 24tph, regardless of whatever objections you want to throw up. It's pointless in rabbitting on a ...

Sorry @sims, I just remembered what the date was, can now see you were joking.

[quote=Transtopic]You're still in denial sims. It's happening, whatever excuses you like to throw up. One thing on which I will agree with you though, is that T2 would have to be an all stops patter ...

One year on and nothing has changed on a national basis. Is Australia just destined to remain a global laughing stock when it comes to clean transport ?

That isn't government policy. That is just one guys drawings on what he things should be.

Yep it's coming along real quickly. Accelerated by Covid.

I went to reply to an old thread (https://www.railpage.com.au/f-t11401632-0-asc-s0.htm) and was told not to and so created this thread.

No you fail to understand Transtopic. None of this is going to be possible in reality. It isn't a metro and the limiting factor isn't the signalling it is everything else. It is the trains, the platfo ...
