I loved the trams when I was in Melbourne - beat buses hands down.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14994418.post-63298524690431959692009-01-23T21:14:00.000+01:002009-01-23T21:14:00.000+01:00I have a couple of friends who commute from Seafor...I have a couple of friends who commute from Seaford every day and they have nothing but damning reports about connex, cold in winter, hot in summer, overcrowded and unreliable . .oh wait . .that sounds like Sydney trains only we throw in the odd flasher! Connex is a private operator so they should be self-funding and extremely efficient. Ergo . . must be the fault of Melbournians.Bainohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14156193098088048637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14994418.post-48913095171632179932009-01-23T10:37:00.000+01:002009-01-23T10:37:00.000+01:00See, lots of us do use it and ARE JUST SO SICK AND...See, lots of us do use it and ARE JUST SO SICK AND TIRED OF IT NOT RUNNING PROPERLY!!!!! *ahem* Sorry - that's the reaction of a downtrodden Melbourne train commuter having spent the last two weeks attempting to get to and from work each day. I don't ask much, just for a train to arrive when I expect it too. And a seat occasionally. Or at least a strap to hang from when it's standing room only.<BR/><BR/>And all this chaos at a time of year when the trains are not as crowded as normal because school hasn't gone back yet.<BR/><BR/>Oh Kath, you've slipped right back into Melbourne life so smoothly!delamarehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15413653583027366881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14994418.post-60603177098450998342009-01-23T07:45:00.000+01:002009-01-23T07:45:00.000+01:00Sounds like so much hoo-ha to me.

See the traffic congestions disappear faster than icecream on a hot day. See public transport profits skyrocket. See happier commuters. Of course petrol companies who rely on the profits from all those individuals driving to and from won't be quite so happy.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14994418.post-83875702184858134742009-01-23T06:40:00.001+01:002009-01-23T06:40:00.001+01:00Hello..
