Thanks. I was aware that the Stony Point Pass was being stabled at Frankston in 6 road. With the proposed(?) development of
the eastern side of the railway line there was talk in official circles of loosing 6 road to the developers. This was going on
at the same time that the Pass was being moved from Crib Point to Frankston.
If 6 road goes Frankston would be would loose some trains as the could on stable one train less than now.
Something needs to be done in this area such as extending to Langwarren or further.
