The interurban drivers in Sydney are called Everleigh drivers and a few
regard themselves as superior. They don't want any thing to do with
surburban boy drivers. G sets aren't "real" trains in there eyes. I once

Stupid really but thats the way it is. 

V sets are the best trains we have dispite their age and will probably
outlast the G sets.
