the sydney train system has always been bad, trains often run up to half an hour late, constant delays etc are all common, the government then introduced the "millenium trains" which took up so much power that with the existing power circuits, they can't even run them on most lines and now recently, the transport miniter here brought in a strict "health check" rule which is so strict, it sacked nearly half of sydneys drivers, and the transport vowed for a no bullshit safety crackdown on the system, which, last week resulted in the entire city network getting shut down during peak hour, I was driving through the city at the time,.. and I've never seen more people on the streets in my life, there was NO trains running, and then t just snowballed form there, drivers are quitting in record numbers, renegade drivers are refusing to do overtime, and around half of the scheduled trains all around sydney are getting cancelled due to driver shortage, some lines are no longer running at all, and now they are comparing the crowded condiitons on trains to third world countries, and the worst thing of all is that there seems to be no immediate fix to these problems,.. as it takes almost a year to train a driver and of course, this means there are more cars on the road,.. I have to travel 1 1/2 hours each day into the city for work, and now it takes me about 2 1/2 hours, this sucks |
