HALF YOUR LUCK!!!

My train got to central a couple of minutes late, being a Waterfall
Limited stops service. Just as the guard checks the train preparing to
leave the stationmaster comes on the PA system telling everyone that the
indicator boards have changed and it is now an all stations to Waterfall
train. At Sydenham, a ton of school kids got on filling the vestibule
and aisles as if it were a peak hour Cronulla service.

We arrived at Hurstville 12 minutes late.
