Opinions, hot takes and satire about transit, cycling, tech and other Australian and South East Asian stuff. Serious take or not? You decide! @[email protected]

It's been nice knowing you all. I'm winding down my interactions here limiting to transportation agencies that hasn't moved on, and DMs. Otherwise find me on Discord, Mastodon or Bluesky.

@simongerman600 Would be interesting to see separate stats for the constituent countries of the UK

[Arfman ☀️🚍🚆🚊🚲💻 @arfman]

@TheOpalUser @AussieWirraway The one to Broken Hill?

@literar63 If there’s no date, they might be generated on request

@trashyhonky @JacintaAllanMP What’s the deal with cats in cages not allowed in trains there? How do people travel to the vet?

[Arfman ☀️🚍🚆🚊🚲💻 @arfman]

@trashyhonky @aussiewongm Shin-Sydney at Parramatta perhaps

[Arfman ☀️🚍🚆🚊🚲💻 @arfman]

@metrotrains There were only one gate available so it created quite a line

[Arfman ☀️🚍🚆🚊🚲💻 @arfman]

Hi @metrotrains all myki gates at Footscray platform 4 and 5 except the accessible one seems to be entry only no exit. And the Vline arrival display on bridge concourse has not been working for a few weeks.

@PierreVairo @VSBassoon I wonder if people on the Frankston, Werribee and Williamtown lines did the same thing when it went cross suburban for the first time

[Arfman ☀️🚍🚆🚊🚲💻 @arfman]

@AussieWirraway If you have to rebuild it, surely it should comply with DDA?

[Arfman ☀️🚍🚆🚊🚲💻 @arfman]

@aussiewongm @boomerangmadi @AlMacca84 Oh wait I thought you can still go through the concourses without going down to the platform albeit within the fare areas.

[Arfman ☀️🚍🚆🚊🚲💻 @arfman]

@aussiewongm @boomerangmadi @AlMacca84 I don’t get why they close the access between the two if the concourse is open

[Arfman ☀️🚍🚆🚊🚲💻 @arfman]

@papertimetable @AussieWirraway I hope you got it. I saw someone pick one up.

[Arfman ☀️🚍🚆🚊🚲💻 @arfman]

@aussiewongm @Robs_au I think the need to group both stations under one name if the system can't tag those both as one.

[Arfman ☀️🚍🚆🚊🚲💻 @arfman]

@hamhammer27 What’s with the dual totems along these route? Most of them offer any extra information.

[Arfman ☀️🚍🚆🚊🚲💻 @arfman]

@Shadowstar582 Was there another one for Cranbourne?

[Arfman ☀️🚍🚆🚊🚲💻 @arfman]

@AussieWirraway I’ve been talking about riding to the other airport but I’m yet to do it.

[Arfman ☀️🚍🚆🚊🚲💻 @arfman]

@TomMalleeOgden It’s so funny that some buses skip the Vix readers, going straight from the first generation right to the new Conduent readers

[TomOyn 🚉🏗️ @AussieWirraway]

A NEW ERA: 40 metres below Swanston Street in the heart of Melbourne a brand new train station has emerged, and it's a beauty

This week I was lucky enough to visit, so here's my review and everything you need to know before riding THIS YEAR
