As I only catch the 57 from there, I don't worry about the next to go.

Sometimes in the morning, my 57 is on th e blocks just arrived and
frustratingly a 19 or 57 arrives on top. But by the third blink though,
it's gone again. Worse though are the Flinders Lane traffic lights. High
time traffic was kept out of Elizabeth St altogether or at least south of
Lonsdale St.
