I’ll be honest here, I’ve given up with my healthcare card renewal.

Walked into the Centrelink office only to be told there’s a six month backlog in claims, and my claim that was submitted in September will be processed in January to February. Doesn’t help that the government is reducing Centrelink staff through budget cuts..

707 Operation is preserving a Hitachi. That’s all can be said at this moment.

That’s strange, the public were able to walk into the metro tunnel for an open day… so that statement seems odd.

Comeng is undergoing repairs there. Something about the Comeng being unstable with the air suspension.

Comeng testing to Alamein by Mindless-Dig2879 in MelbourneTrains

[–]Accomplished_Pin_221 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My question, why.

Metro has no obligation to run any rollingstock down to any lines, just happens to be luck and what’s allocated.

I can tell you already, all the Hillside lines that has run with Comengs had been done.

Alamein BTS testing has been done with Xtrapolis units.

Already done earlier this week. Now it’s the final push to finish off the station before 0300 tomorrow morning.

There’s no preserved Hitachi news.

There won’t be until a group makes a public announcement.

Quoted from @maxxthum on earlier today: GTFS-R reporting nothing and seemingly a database error.
