4025 has been delivered. Just after Easter I saw it in the Seaford depot yard. Shortly afterwards it was reported out testing.Jacob_ULG3 wrote: ↑Mon May 16, 2022 1:09 amJust out of pure curiosity.
How many NEW electric trains are here?
I know 4023 and 4024 have entered service.
Is there a 4025-4034 sets or just 4023 and 4024 here at the moment of this post?
It's been a while since I've seen any posts or anything about new trains 4025 and above for several months.
Geez there is a lot of rubbish on the track at Elizabeth station!!PeFe wrote: ↑Tue May 17, 2022 3:37 pmElectric train testing on the Gawler Line

I'm not great with budget papers but it looks like the whole $51M is accounted for in the 22-23 and 23-24 estimates and completion is still expected by June 2024. Unless I'm missing something?
Yes, works will start in the upcoming financial year and will probably be finished around December next year.Llessur2002 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 02, 2022 11:20 pmI'm not great with budget papers but it looks like the whole $51M is accounted for in the 22-23 and 23-24 estimates and completion is still expected by June 2024.

Hi, I can't say this without sounding cynical or sarcastic or patronising.

Regency to Pym was finished under budget and ahead of schedule and T2T was under budget and extended, and it was finished on time.rubberman wrote: ↑Fri Jun 03, 2022 1:44 pmHi, I can't say this without sounding cynical or sarcastic or patronising.

However, look at the record of this and previous governments on delivering projects on the promised time frame.
On the basis of major projects in the past twenty years, have ANY been delivered on time? Any?
We are currently looking at the Gawler line electrification. Originally pledged to be finished by the end of 2020.
So. The people who gave us the Gawler electrification project...are saying June 2024. I say, based on the record, December at the earliest, and likely June 2025 ot later.
Shall we have a bet on a beer on whether it happens by June 2024? I offer you a carton of your favourite beer as the stake if I am wrong, vs a pint if I am right. Care to place a bet?
Those are just parts of an existing project. They weren't one-offs started from zero.Cryptic wrote: ↑Fri Jun 03, 2022 2:58 pmRegency to Pym was finished under budget and ahead of schedule and T2T was under budget and extended, and it was finished on time.rubberman wrote: ↑Fri Jun 03, 2022 1:44 pmHi, I can't say this without sounding cynical or sarcastic or patronising.
