Well, instead of cutting due to developer "influence", why not this, and that tram-trains sharing the tracks with trains continuing to Newcastle Station, maybe a bit slower, but speeded up elsewhere to make up for the slower speed.

I think Save Our Rail (SOR) supports something similar to that, but of course, we know what the developers are after. But I heard an interview where Tim Owen changed his mind again, and he mentioned something about cutting the line at Maitland. He mentioned something about he wants to get passenger trains off the freight lines. Sounds to me, he & his Greiner mate wants to close down ALL train services outside Sydney and/or Gosford.

Oh, and if you see the SOR website, you will see this notice here ([size=2]http://saveourrail.org.au/?p=648[/size] )

Oh yes, their is are videos of a heavy rail train going down a mall and street. Search for Wexford.
