Re: Freight to Richmond (NSW)

Freight on the richmond line???? WHAT A JOKE!!!!
a vast majority of the line has had only minor repairs since the steam era,
and even passenger trains could almost be consitered overkill, and as for
train capacity, well, 1 train every 1/2 hr is a big squeeze. hope they plan
on upgrading!!!! Please!!!!
