I just happened to pass though the Barossa Valley this week and noticed there are baby pine trees sprouting up between the sleepers. This is a national disgrace!!!
What a waste of infrastructure.

Cant grade sep every crossing, and even in places with hardly any level crossings, some elderly Camry driver will still manage to find a way to crash through the fencing and onto the tracks.

Used to be Volvo Drivers - where are they now?

The 1km spur line has been designed to allow the hundreds of people who will soon be living at Dock One to commute to and from work.

I wonder if anyone has thought that these people might work shifts at Osborne building offshore patrol vessels, frigates and submarines, not nine-five in Adelaide City. Which way will the spur be connected to the main line? Very few of the "jobs created" by the government are in the city square mile.

With the state election fast approaching, I think it's very possible we will hear plans to electrify the Port Adelaide Line.

*fingers crossed*
