See http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-09-12/metro-contract-extended-for-melbournes-train-network/8895462

For Metro trains - no station skipping.

For Yarra Trams - no short shunting - quote "The French-owned Yarra Trams will also be banned from changing its services to meet punctuality standards..".
Punctuality target - Trams will need be on time 82 per cent of the time, up from 77 per cent.
