Shitty Rail

New sydney rail timetable:

"The new train timetable reduces many journey times for customers travelling longer distances from intercity or outer suburban areas. Customers at stations closer to the CBD will receive more regular and consistent services. Across the network the train timetable is simpler, with fewer stopping patterns."

I'm struggling to see how this benefits those who aren't "closer to the cbd". Explain. Please.


I'm starting to think they are trying to encourage Berala people to walk to Lidcombe for exercise. How thoughtful of them.

      LOOL careful you might get rolled, pretty boy! ;)

      Direct translation of "fewer stopping patterns" basically means a lot of stations are getting ignored. Top job, as always.

    They merged my line and two others into one giant yellow one.
