Pfffft.

@fictillius I am going to have to re-work my draft updated Sydney Rail Map to undo changes this new timetable would have introduced. Silly me doing it ahead of time.
(Yes there was always going to be a couple of weeks between when the metro opened and the new train timetables started).

Proposed timetable changes on the T4, T8 and South Coast lines have been scrapped by the NSW government.

The changes were due to begin next month but have been opposed by commuters. https://t.co/53LQMz6c0L

@craig_halsall If you look closely at the timetable at https://t.co/kbi74erGrT by clicking on trips at the head of the column, it shows which platform each train calls at. And you'll see that many trains departing Bankstown have arrived at the same platform 2 minutes previously.

TfNSW have today published an update for their GTFS timetable data including the Metro timetables for the extension from Sydenham to Bankstown which opens next Friday, October 30th.

And it's now uploaded at Table no 285 on the railmaps website.

@suburbanloop Is there a way for us to follow along with how far the TBMs have dug and where they are now?

[Suburban Rail Loop @suburbanloop]

Our first section of tunnel.

Tunnel boring machines Alice, Hacia and Aayushi are digging the Suburban Rail Loop.

[Railmaps @railmaps]

@AussiePeteC Yes. All the way to Tallawong via North Sydney, Chatswood, Epping and Rouse Hill.

@Valen10Francois Les lignes de merde?

@lottsanumbers @infodexx "What will we name this place?"
"I dunno"
"Pardon?"
"I dunno"
"That's as good as any other name"

[Railmaps @railmaps]

During the peaks and the daytime, trains are timetabled for 2 minute turnarounds at Bankstown - ie they depart on their return to the city and Tallawaong just two minutes after they are timetabled to arrive.

[Railmaps @railmaps]

...then one every four minutes through the afternoon peak until 19:03 and then one every 10 minutes through the evening until the final departure at 01:03 the next morning.

Trains are timetabled to take 27 minutes to reach Central station.

@EngFocus The answer is a.
A is actually a way of life for some.

@TomMalleeOgden It's a tram to nowhere, don't you know.

[Suburban Rail Loop @suburbanloop]

A close-up of the circular piles that line your new station in Glen Waverley. There are 268 of them.

Each concrete column extends deep into the ground, providing essential ground support and eventually acting as the walls of the completed station.

🚉 Bankstown, get ready!

The wait is almost over.

On Friday 30 October, the M1 Bankstown Line will open.

We can’t wait to welcome you aboard! 💙

@TheOpalUser So, a faithful reconstruction of its past, then?

[Railmaps @railmaps]
