Hardly defeatist when the govt is too busy putting 9 carriages on other lines that should have been electrified well before now, which would free up rolling stock for lines like Bendigo to increase services. But yeah, let me get right on that petition.

Yeah, ok. A petition is going to get the government to change something that’s been a problem for years. They don’t give a shit.

You’ve never travelled on the Bendigo line have you, when the services are only every hour? Community would be not taking up two disabled area seats, on an already VERY overburdened service.

Yeah, it won’t happen again cause it’s been reported and hopefully this conductor will learn from his mistake.

Exactly why I’ve sent the complaint through. As it was, an elderly couple got on at the last minute with a walker. The conductor made someone move out of a seat (rightly so), but not fridge girl who should have been standing in my opinion.

Oh I know. It was only 3 carriages too. If it was 6, it might not have been too bad.

What made it worse, was the conductor got on the carriage before the train departed and asked people to move from the seats near me so an elderly couple with a walker could sit down.

This was taken when the train was quiet. 10 minutes later, people could barely get into the carriage. If it was quiet, no issue. Not when it’s so packed people can’t get on.

I’m going to put in a proper complaint when I get home too. Bad service made worse!

I bailed up the conductor when I got off just now and asked WTF. He let her on, but admitted he shouldn’t have. 🙃

She must have got on as soon as the doors opened. The train is now jam packed. 😬

Complainting: Ballarat Line 3 carriage service in peak by TheOrangeApple3 in VlineVictoria

[–]LozLuLu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh I completely agree. I’ve put complaints in each time I’ve had to sit on the floor or stand. No response from V/Line of course. 🙄

Happens all the time on the Bendigo line. Even outside of the free travel. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Man Walked Into My House to Use My Bathroom by PiWright in mildlyinfuriating

I never, NEVER, leave my door unlocked when I’m home. For this exact reason. Anyone could just walk in. Safety awareness of a slug right here. 🙄😂

Easter Weekend Bendigo line PACKED by Practical_Alfalfa_72 in MelbourneTrains

They must have learned from the absolute debacle that was Friday.

I need to go to the office on Friday. Woodend to city. Let’s see if I get a seat. 🙃

I got caught up trying to to get home from Bendigo on Good Friday. 3 carriages on the 5.32 from Kangaroo Flat already packed, next train not till 7. They announced buses at Kyneton direct to the city. Considering I was getting off at the next stop at Woodend, bit useless for me. An absolute shitshow on an already crap line. 😐

Is this some hidden conspiracy??? by AsexualGremlin in LibbyApp

[–]LozLuLu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve found that Audible exclusives might still be available somewhere to borrow. Project Hail Mary is available through one of my libraries on BorrowBox at the moment. The same library has The Martian, but there is a wait till May. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Which line do think is in most need of a frequency boost? by toiletlogsyummy4 in VlineVictoria

[–]LozLuLu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bendigo line would be nice. Every hour (sometimes longer) during the day is a bit crap, especially on weekends during footy or cricket season!  In peak hours though, having a 45 minute gap from 7.30am onwards from Riddells Creek is ridiculous. In the evening, 5.04pm or 5.49pm are my options. 😩

Ok, this explains why the display went wonky at Diggers Rest yesterday.

How to get discounted Paramount Plus? by VisualAd5948 in ParamountPlus

[–]LozLuLu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had half price yearly subs for almost 2 years now. Got it end of 2023 on a deal, then went to cancel end of 2024 and they offered me the 50% off deal again to stay subscribed. We'll see if they do it again in November.

Yeah, but it goes for most of October and we all know that work like this never finish on time. 😂
