Re: CityRail probs today??



I was at Central today and most of the trains appeared to be terminating in
the Country Trains area, all the Western services at least were over there.
There were big trackworks between Central and Strathfield area on about 10
tracks it appeared to the south side, and the trains were doing a mighty
fast speed of about 40k p/h between Central and Strathfield. At one section
on the track we were on just out of Central (on a T class which is
irrelevant), it felt as though there must have been a 10cm or more drop
between line welds as the train felt as though it dropped off the track.
