Riding N12 reduced 4 cars after it’s return

N12 has return to public service once more but only as 4 cars!

After storms EVI appears at Swan Hill & N12 return to Melb yard hasn’t being seen since Jun 25.

These events that led me to being concerned of a potential collapse of the train regional service to Swan Hill if ignored too long.

N450 is put through her paces in bad weather and a fallen tree obstructs tracks stuffing up the evening peck services!

N460 was used despite having some issues and broke down at departure the day after!

Swan Hill Line had sudden rolling stock change at short notice.

VL no. 1251 next me on 6A for Warrnambool had been taken out of service!

As soon as I was settled in BZN252 they got the train out the platform very promptly!

Usual reason was train fault, as it was confirmed via various source at Southern Cross.

Now in writing V/Line top management is making changes to rolling stock to the commuter urban rail units.
