My favourite was catching an interurban from theBlue Mtns to central (which
was usually early morniong and evryone slept on them)and usually they are
late and the old annoucement apologising, yet one morning we were five
minutes early and the guard had to put a message through advising of this
to wake evryone up and then proceeeded with a message saying that State
Rail apologised for the inconvenience!!!!!!!
