Parramatta Stadium Rebuild and other stuff

Or it could have been moved off to a Siding, as there are a few of those on the network.

I guess the only thing to worry about is the safety of the passengers.

I would guess that the safest thing would be to empty the train at the next stop and then leave this one going with no passengers

Geez, 8 Phillip street is looking stunning.
They are now starting work on the old church which was the Bavarian Beer Cafe.
Ignore the piece of shit Lennox tower in the background.

Had many great nights at the old Bavarian Bier Cafe in Parramatta in my early 20s.

It's actually a shame that is gone.

What's the go with the big coming attractions board. It worked for 8 months, started to glitch and now its been turned off for years

Yes, that screen was a cheap out when the stadium was being built. A huge disappointment.

On another note and unrelated to your post Mits, a great interview with John Graham by the ABC re the Metro "open door" issue.
He ultimately doesn't paint a great light on the Sydney Trains system and their reliability, nor the RTBU, and that is from a Labor minister.
Who would have ever thunk it that Labor would become frustrated over their antics as well?

Seems like some people think Labor must be always in the pocket of every particular union...? Whereas experience and an open mind shows that is hardly the case.

It was actually one of the main features of the stadium when it opened. It was stunning. Seems like it can't be fixed - even though my taxes paid for it. Piss poor.

Funny thing is I was driving past yesterday. It was all lit up with test patterns and characters.
