[quote=Alfred3333]As mentioned before, K sets don't fit well onto all stops service (banko and inner west lines). Due to the characteristics of the lines, especially the Banko Line, sharp bends make K ...
K set will continue to comfortably fit the timetable setting for Inner West and Bankstown. The statement that fleets with a faster acceleration and breaking ratios are best for an all-stopper is someh ...
Unless everyone has a smart phone and know how to deal with those stores and apps flying around, printed timetable and booklets are still necessities in stations. They can't assume that once they got ...
Thanks everyone's responds. Definitely learnt a lot.

[quote=clrks]As far as the Bankstown Line goes, I think there's been some hits and some misses. As lyyjjimmy says, the frequent hour has been extended and there are more services overall. I think a lo ...
Glad to see Bankstown Line becomes self-feeding for most of the time, and congra to Marrickville's residents who receive a huge boost of train service during peak hours. Also I'm pleased to see the go ...

If the Chatswood - CBD line can be re-jigged for 20tph , what is to stop a decision to have the "Metro" running through and Upper North Shore passengers changing from DD stock at Chatswood ?Using t ...
Speed, I think there would be a decent price difference between tunnels for SD trains vs DD but I think the desire for the SD also extends to the fact that they can easily cope with the grades of an u ...
