Yeah, around 1830-1900 an affirmative action put a non-Tangara type train through the jacks coming out of the yard. One bogie in the
dirt. They decided they wanted the line clear NOW, so they hauled it back in clear whilst it was still in the dirt. This is a first
as far as I know. First officially anyway.

There was also a junkie OD'd at Macquarie Fields last night around 11.30. All trains on the down held till the ambulance got there,
gave him a heart starter, received the profuse thanks and reward offered by the victim who decided to remain on the train to his
houso destination.

Apparently there was a fatality at Lidcombe on Tuesday afternoon, a male, no other details known.
