while we are on such a subject, a friend informed me that on either
monday or tuesday night there was a bit of action at chatswood station,
times are a little blurry at this moment but aparently there was a train
on each platform and a whole heap of cops and other various emergency
vehicles around there, can anyone shed some light on this?
