Rolling on from the outages and service issues on the Ballarat Line yesterday to which some have called a deliberate act of delaying people from regional centres access to the Emergency Tax protests in Melbourne, the Ballarat Line has collapsed again today with signalling failures and massive delays.
This is the second day running the Ballarat Line has been largely out of service for the all important morning peak services.
It is also noted the Geelong/Warrnambool Line has also collapsed with services being cancelled.
This really sad….
A railway in 1st world nation like Vic AUS that other managers from other railway operators used come over to learn how we operated and manage the rail system is reduced to this….
What happened to all the older professionals the industry,
?
Yes men? Or they got rid of local expertise in Mechical Rolling Stock engineers well versed on Vic Railway conditions along with cab commitees to ensure the trains were designed fot purpose of crew use and passenger comfort?
System has hit crisis tipping point the entire management need to reapply for their jobs.
V/Line does not work, customer service is not at the centre of their operation, poor rolling stock selection, no electrification and management are clueless.
“Some have called a deliberate act of delaying people from regional centres access to the Emergency Tax protests in Melbourne”
Only the stupidest people in the state would believe this.
In chaotic times anything is possible…..
Not saying if they did or not….
ever heard the negative infinite and positive infinite theory?
When thing goes well it really good beyond exceptional ….when things go sour it is really rotten….it’s all part of the spectrum…..
Hard to believe it to be true and even harder to believe V/Line could manage it.
This government will stop at nothing to get their agendas over the line and at whatever cost as we have experienced in the recent years with a massive debt burden.
Warrnambol Train was cancelled yet again over the weekend.
It has been cancelled a few times each week it is terrible for people needing the service and was a one women put it the bus is more reliable.
Ballarat line closed again but not for maintenance but for level crossing and sky rail works. We. Is have months and months of Ballarat line delays once again without any advantage to passengers.
