That was another thing I have against them, one of the French technicians
was complaining about our track, actually, some of our track is ordinary,
but most is good) and I made the coment, if you have around 200km of track
(our part) would'nt you buy a car that will run on it rather than try and
upgrade all that track so this primadonna can run smoothly on it?

By the way, the DOI held it all up today, you might see them in service
after tomorrow's peak, MAYBE.

The Citadis goes quite fast. Having given one a quick chase down Plenty
Road (between Tyler and Albert Streets) a couple of weeks ago, it was
impossible to keep in front and stay on the speed limit. It was doing
about
70 at a guess, the road speed limit.


Interestingly enough, when it did a run up Balaclava Rd last night, at
50kmh
it rocked quite badly from side to side, and even more badly when it
braked.
