or whatever stupid name they gave it) to Melbourne for a day train was
proposed, it was postponed a number of times over subsidisation arrangements
with the Vic Govt. So if Vline is the agency through which the Vic Govt
subsidises the XPT then in a sense Vline do run the service, at least
financially.
