Re: Sydney rail system sucks?!?!?!?

[James Brook <ajmbrook@ozemail.com.au>]

One thing you have to remember is that NSW has a much larger suburban and
interurban system than any other state. If accidents are going to happen, NSW is
the most likely place but this still shouldn't be used as an excuse for any
accident because some of them appear to be avoidable. No one worries about using
a car, but there is a far greater risk in travelling by car than by a NSW train.
If you get worried about travelling by train then you should be scared to death
about travelling by car!
