Re: News & Discussion: Public Transport
When I said train or bus from Dry Creek to the Port, I wasn't suggesting the South Road connector, I was suggesting if it was a bus, then along Cormack Road to serve the workers in the industrial area that has developed over the years. Currently the nearest public transport is over on Grand Jct Road.

Re: News & Discussion: Public Transport
OMG!!! Is it just an adelaide thing, or do we not think about transport infastructure until AFTER everything is built. As far as Mawson Lakes/Salisbury and Port Adelaide are concerned the 1980's might as well have been the 1800's such is the developement since.As for the previous line being closed ...

Re: News & Discussion: Public Transport
Anyone see the Today Tonight report on Adelaide's public transport?. Such terrible journalism even for Today Tonight,. They portrayed Adelaide as some kind of hicksville and we should all pack up and leave. Ofcourse it forgot to mention the record investment that is being poured into the train netw...

Re: News & Discussion: Regional Rail Transport & Infrastruct
No hissy fit, no tantrum, a realist who has worked in the rail industry for decades, and in many capacities, including as a senior public servant prior to retirement. I have been in a position that allowed me to investigate and probably respond to some of the misunderstanding that some people have a...

Re: News & Discussion: Regional Rail Transport & Infrastruct
This thread has become a joke, the main blogger and a couple of his associates, if they are not the same person in not prepared to except constructive and correct responses, there seems to be continued doubt to some responses that have been posted trying to explain why and when event occurred and wh...

Re: News & Discussion: Regional Rail Transport & Infrastruct
You mentioned Saddleworth railway station being demolished, that got me curious because I couldn/t remember that, so I spoke to a couple of my mates and they told me the the private owner, SACBH or Viterra demolished it sometime back. 2006 rings a bell. While you may very well be correct, I do not ...

Re: News & Discussion: Regional Rail Transport & Infrastruct
Correct me if I'm wrong, the whinging isn't so much about the shunting process itself, but the fact that the shunting causes the level crossing & boomgates to be down for too long? Could always grade-seperate the intersections? There would be issues with road traffic delays at level crossings a...
