Re: Schoolies Weekness



They must be hiding or dressed in school uniforms, because I haven't seen
one.

Anyway the problem is enroute, (mainly towards Glen Waverley), I've had
doors forced open whilst the train is moving (causing a blue flashing light
on the door control consol), of cause the favourite trick is to stand half
in and half out the doors at stations causing late running, (I could suggest
blades in the door rubbers might solve this problem)<g>
