The first time that any public transport mode in any Australian city has
exceeded the peak patronage of the second generation Sydney tramways.
Congratulations Sydney Trains. It took 140 years but we got there!

But from what heights the third generation has fallen. It's a pretty
damning indictment of the IWLR design and operation that it has the poorest
on-time running percentage, for a mode that's being promoted by TfNSW as
more reliable than buses. SIngle track stub at Dulwich Hill thwarting
recovery time, too few doors on the trams, lackadaisical operation by
Transdev. Yet entirely on its own grade-separated ROW or in its own
exclusive lanes. It can really be done much better than this. Seeing photos
yesterday of the multiple obsessively-micromanaged speed limit signs along
CSELR doesn't give much hope that things will improve - and considering
that it will still be operated by Transdev.
