Re: Parramatta Light Rail

and TfNSW in usual spin doctor analysis style took the bait hook, line and sinker but gee they got some snappy PR at the time which would have impressed the Minister.  But know in the rel world the crows are coming home to roost.

Yeah, the problem with the power supply is obvious - two long gaps in the overhead wire…..

Probably found the batteries are not quite up to running up the hill to Westmead. I guess they will have to turn the air-conditioning off at Ngara to save power for the climb up to Westmead. :-)

Still can't fathom why Hawksbury road doesn't have overhead - not as if there is any classic architecture that would be 'visually ruined' by overhead and extra poles to hold it. CAF just wanted to show off and find an excuse to sell TfNSW a proprietary ground charger.
