Re: [Melb] Bayside Trains Promotion

["Goll, David M" <david@goll.com>]

I think one could say this had to happen. Oddly though, there is nothing on
Bayside trains website or the Metcard website regarding this.
One wouldve thought that if this new "service" was being released today,
they would have put at least some content on their website regarding this,
or am I expecting too much???
