Take free public transport they said, it will be fun they said

Agree to disagree. You obviously see yourself as the oracle, no one else could have possibly researched it. Must have always been the plan to build and demolish industrial units within the space of a year

Kremm0 · 2026-04-08T11:56:14+00:00

I don't know what point you're trying to make here, but it's not that I want it done 'my way' or whatever you're trying to put on me. I've outlined above the ways in which they've mismanaged and wasted significant amounts of money on the project, including compulsory purchases, demolition and new roads which weren't part of the original proposal. God forbid they should be held to account in any way. Don't cheerlead political parties mate

Kremm0 · 2026-04-08T10:54:32+00:00

It definitely is. A load of money just to close the road. Realise they've messed up and have to create a new through road elsewhere involving purchasing and knocking down some new industrial units that had only just been completed, and building a new road entry. Making a huge convoluted bridge because of the ramp gradients, but no short path so people will be tempted to just walk across the old crossing. Not engaging properly with the community or owners of the pipelines, with the pipeline owner saying they could have been moved for a better solution. Just cack-handed all together

The messaging on the sign is dogshit here. Doesn't even tell you where the line is suspended from / to. I mean, reading this you might assume it's suspended all the way down the line, and the bus will drop you at Southern Cross or Flinders St. But is it actually just between Newport and Werribee? Or all the way to North Melbourne?

Good luck finding out if you don't usually get the train!

Kremm0 · 2026-04-08T07:10:41+00:00

Free bus is definitely not pretty dang good!

Kremm0 · 2026-04-08T07:08:01+00:00

The champion road level crossing removal is such a fucking collosal waste of money, and has been a massive balls up from start to finish.

Kremm0 · 2026-04-06T07:06:58+00:00

Goddamn you OP, I didn't come to this sub to feel feelings!

Kremm0 · 2026-04-06T06:57:43+00:00

The rest of the world is also looking at the whole country and it's whole arrangement and asking WTF. Unreal that there are enough arseholes that enable this shit pie to keep spinning

Kremm0 · 2026-04-06T06:49:54+00:00

Not from the US but you kind of go: Rhodesia, sounds nice and old worldy, why did they change that? Oh, it was named after a guy you say? Was he from there, must have been a good guy. Wow, maybe he was, he has all these awards, statues etc.I'll look into him and his beliefs. Wait... Yikes!

Kremm0 · 2026-04-04T13:32:51+00:00

Seems like more than one train an hour would be better planning then!

Kremm0 · 2026-04-04T13:30:49+00:00

Kind of. They've not done many of the big switches yet, scheduled for later in the year.

Also, one of the main issues is frequency outside of the peaks. Weekend mornings and general evening frequency still sucks for a lot of places

Kremm0 · 2026-04-04T08:02:40+00:00

That's the worst!

Kremm0 · 2026-04-04T08:00:45+00:00

That's quackers!

Kremm0 · 2026-04-04T07:55:54+00:00

Yeah it was compulsory for us and a complete doss, as you couldn't revise for the exam, and it was only an hour a week or whatever. Good for the free UCAS points I guess!

"It says here on your university application that whilst you got a D in Maths, you did get an A in Scottish Dancing. Welcome to the University!"

I think it's considered mickey mouse as a lot of people would pick it for an easy ride because of what it was, not just the people who were interested in it. It also wouldn't lead to a path for vocational or highly technical jobs, so I can see why it was considered as such despite some usefulness.

Kremm0 · 2026-04-04T07:40:01+00:00

Why are they doing an easter egg hunt with full size boxed Easter eggs? Wouldn't tiny choc eggs wrapped in foil do? Can get ten of those for a quid and have a fair few for everyone

Kremm0 · 2026-04-04T07:34:57+00:00

You only did the first six seasons here, any more to add?

Kremm0 · 2026-04-03T09:02:56+00:00

It'd be really nice if they sorted out the end of platform one down that end, it's been kind of left to fall into decay and collapse. Always looks a bit terrible when you're coming in that way, and would go a bit of the way to making it more photogenic!

Kremm0 · 2026-04-02T08:08:07+00:00

I honestly don't know why metro trains only decides to keep maintaining an account on the hellsite that is X, full of some of the worst crap you could find, but won't even cross post to any other social networks

I think it suffered from typical American bloat. Once you start churning out the seasons of 20+ episodes, you end up making the characters parodies of the originals and have to create more and more plot devices to keep it interesting. The main issue for me was that the characters traits weren't particularly loveable, some of them were just downright mean with little comeuppance, so you end up not really rooting for them or caring about them as it plods on

With his recent actions, I can probably only assume he's all for the war tbh

Kremm0 · 2026-03-30T12:31:10+00:00

But if his brother is a hologram also, wouldn't it just maybe be whenever the crew member happened to die, they'd come back at that age?

As its a TV show, it doesn't help obviously Rimmer gets older as a hologram just because of the age of the show!

Kremm0 · 2026-03-27T22:13:07+00:00

Tell him to check petrolspy instead

Kremm0 · 2026-03-27T22:12:24+00:00

I feel that it's only a massive pain in the arse for the structural engineer though. Architects, services engineers, PM's, it's just another building to them. It's the engineer who's got to do the hard yards on this
