I'm still on a social media break, but this was too good not to share:

In case I get suspended for the elephant-like creature in the room/on my profile, I want to say a massive thank you to everyone I have interacted with here over the years - this was a great place, and you were all what made it great.

See you on the other side I hope. 🐘

@KenBurgin Thanks 🙂

I may reduce my activity here, as the way Twitter is run becomes more like a derailed wagon tearing up 10km of the Blue Mountains line. The Android app is getting buggy, and proposed upcoming changes sound particularly unappealing.

Not disappearing fully, but not as active.

@railmaps Understandable - we have a trip coming up to see my family in NZ, so also glad to get it out of the way for the same reason.

[T2commuter 🎢 ➡️ 🐘 @T2commuter]

@railmaps I tested positive on Monday, and negative today ... still feeling it a bit, but was lucky to get through relatively quickly I guess.

Glad you're through it too.

The main western rail line through the Blue Mountains will be closed for repairs from Sunday morning for at least five days following a freight train derailment earlier this week. https://t.co/bPkO9weSEl

Sydney Trains has taken numerous safety actions in response to a near miss, which resulted in injuries to one rail worker, a transport safety investigation report notes.

[WalkSydney (@[email protected]) @walksydney1]

What are the most important walk (and bike) infrastructure projects to build in Greater Sydney? We are putting together a list that is large enough for the big end of town to be interested. Details are good.

[T2commuter 🎢 ➡️ 🐘 @T2commuter]

@walksydney1 For pedestrians, ensuring footpaths actually meet accessibility standards and are safe to use without trip hazards left behind every time a contractor digs one up. This is basic stuff done poorly now.

Better pedestrian priority at crossings, and do away with beg buttons.

[T2commuter 🎢 ➡️ 🐘 @T2commuter]

@walksydney1 Actually fulfilling their promise to revitalise Parramatta Road post westconnex, making a proper arterial route for cyclists to/from the city.

Also Glebe Island Bridge, and establishing a full link between the upcoming Rozelle parklands to the Inner West greenway.

Bloody hell, imagine trying to get home to the Blue Mountains on #sydneytrains this evening
