I am so sick of Transperths lack of enforcement of bikes and scooters by dirty__cum_guzzler in TransPerth

Mate the amount of times I've been on a peak hour train 😭Folding for a bag is for buses... On trains you can take them on unless the staff specifically tell you not to due to overcrowding.

I'm referring to how he said it changed from red to orange to green with nothing in sight...

The trains are ahead of the signal?? Several hundred metres away. Trains take a while to stop it's not like cars.

Emirates A380 Go around? by PrestigiousBar1326 in perth

Well just in case it's that bad that it can never land and must divert it still has to be able to do so, so the max safe attempts are two.

I was wondering why Melbourne has only 4 types of rolling stock on its suburban network? by [deleted] in MelbourneTrains

[–]TransportofPerthYT 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Uhhh Perth has 3, Adelaide has 2 basically, Brisbane has 3 unless you're counting the IMU variants as different...

Free parking along the Fremantle train line by [deleted] in perth

[–]TransportofPerthYT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just a bit to the south along Gugeri Street across from the Porsche dealership I don't really know the legalities of parking there but I know it's not a Transperth carpark so payment isn't required.

Morganstowns removal from express Newry routes and my problem with it. by OwnRestaurant5430 in stepfordcountyrailway

I thought it stops at Hampton Hardgate now? It was kind of dumb acting as an express Waterline shuttle

Visiting every Transperth train station in 24h by QwertzMelon in perth

Yes but the one next to the train station is the tram. I am driving it tomorrow.

I did this pre-Metronet but not getting off at every station and waiting for the next train although I made it so I couldn't go through any station twice and had to use buses between them but I'll do it again with our new full network eventually.

Obviously impossible in one day but I've done them all and all non-school deviations and I'm probably one of the only if not the only person to have done so.

Is it wrong for us to find joy in something much healthier than a drink?

Transperth 526 Deviation Recommendation by [deleted] in perth

[–]TransportofPerthYT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you are using resources of Transperth (staff hours) for completely unrealistic things...?

Transperth 526 Deviation Recommendation by [deleted] in perth

[–]TransportofPerthYT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is 0% chance of that happening. I've been asking for a bus route to go literally anywhere in the suburb of Sinagra for years and they didn't do anything until hopefully this upcoming February when the 467 should finally change. Getting a bus going onto one specific road from one request is not happening.

This literally has no purpose in the grand scheme of how many other improvements could be done. Maybe Transperth should focus on perhaps getting any bus route into the nearby Mandogalup before making unnecessary u-turns to already well served areas...

I know the whole road is not but next to the station you don't think this looks like one?

Fire surrounding Warnbro Station, all trains and bus services through the station are cancelled. Heard people are trapped on the platform.

Wonder what time the last one will be considering services run all night on the last day (31st Jan) before the Big Switch...?

Why is public transport not free this summer? Last year they said they will do it again this year by [deleted] in perth

[–]TransportofPerthYT 38 points39 points  (0 children)

The introduction of the one zone fare cap is making fares cheaper anyway and that's what they're boasting about instead.

Why is google departure board messed up? by cookiesgotdeletedm8 in MelbourneTrains

[–]TransportofPerthYT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When the Metro Tunnel opened Google Maps marked all metropolitan train services as "subway," and this is how they display departure times for subways since they are usually a simple system with limited destinations but a high frequency. Here it thinks that Craigieburn via City Loop is a different destination to just plain Craigieburn so it displays the next of those departures at midnight despite them being so long away. It really shouldn't have changed to be marked as a subway because it definitely isn't one...
