Re: [NSW] Blue Mountains timetables

4 cars at Lapstone's a furphy but Linden's not.

The message needed in addition to the rear 4 cars at Linden is that
passengers for all stations Lapstone to Leura and others(?) should not use
the lead door of the first car (on 8 car V sets).  It's only made once in a
blue moon (like the 1203 Syd Term to Lithgow, also last Saturday).

About once a month coming home from work I tell a passenger that they need
to use the rear door of the lead car.  I wonder how often passengers are
carried over to the next station in these circumstances.
