so now that "Run 130" belongs to sector 2 (obvious), so what run is it now? It's gone back to sector
3 hands...

Oh btw could someone provide run details for Turrella/Wolli Creek to Central/Ashfield shuttles? I
know they resemble Boeing's marvellous works of wonder (i.e. 747, 777 etc etc.)
          
          Yes.
          
          100 series run numbers are 6 car sets.
          
          Sector 1:
          Runs 1-6 = 8T
          Runs 7-16 = 8S
          Runs 101-108 = 6R
          
          Sector 2:
          Runs 17-36 = 8T
          Runs 38-59 = 8S
          Runs 120-133 = 6R/C
          
          Sector 3:
          Runs 60-73 = 8T
          Runs 74-99 = 8K/S
          Runs 141-154 = 6R
          
          For runs 1-99, if there is an A or B directly after the run number, it indicates it is
half of that set,
          or 4 cars.
