Re: [SA] Rail extension held up

["James C" <noemail@emailsux.com>]

Bluebirds need 60000$ for track accessing and 70000$ for line upgrade(line
between Angaston and Nuriootpa looked over grown)

they needed toal of 130000$ to get it up and running. On top of that
facilities at Angaston is needed as well and complecation between who owns
the facilities (ASR or Federal or State or local council).       I don't
think 3 times weekly service can earn that much money.....

But locals in Tanuda and Angaston have help Bluebird set up its business by
volunteering clean up station yard at Tanuda and Angaston. Locals at both
towns welcome Bluebirds abmition to bring more tourists into the valley.


Cheers
James
