Re: VIC - Suburban Trains

["Ronald BESDANSKY" <ronbest@bigpond.com>]

Because if I want to make a note to call somebody about the problem, I
either have to get up at a station to look outside for the number (which
might be only at the end I'm not at) and chance losing my seat, or wait till
I get off and write the number down then (if I remember, and again if I'm at
the 'right' end of the car.). Every other public transport vehicle I can
recall travelling in has its number displayed inside. Isn't it useful to
people repairing trains etc if they can walk through until they find the car
they're looking for?
