|Wollongong train details start to (re)appear on the departure vid
|screens at Central station
|
|It's not yet 11pm - and already Hungry Jacks on Central station is
|closed
|
|There's plenty of staff still around on Central station, but none of
|them are saying "Hello" to you or smiling .... and they're all armed
|with a broom and dirty cleaning cloth
|
|Now that passengers should be paying fares, there is only one freely
|open ticket barrier on Central station ..... but it is unstaffed
|
|You're still doing some volunteer Olympic work, but you're the only
|one in the carriage wearing one of "those" shirts
|
|You get off a train at Central station and you can go to the *nearest*
|escalator, and take the *shortest* walking distance between 2 points
|(and not be directed on a long one-way route-march requiring a cut
|lunch and a water bottle just to get from A to B)
|
|You pass City bound trains at night which are only 4 cars long .....
|and 2 of those are locked up and blacked out.
