Hope for better wrote:
The thing with a new operator is that, generally, the staff are the same so their 40 year history of making decisions in a crisis are the same. For example, they historically always cancel a 'short' line train over a long distance train, in the belief they can bring the system back to 'normal' more quickly. Which is why the Upfields, Williamstown (before the Newport changeover), Frankston, Sydenham and Sandringham trains tend to get necked when a train goes down. It kind of builds in poor service on all those lines, and ours especially.
The operation control staff don't get that trains that now service growth corridors are stuffed to capacity and it's downright dangerous to cancel them.
Connex did not hire many of the maintenance staff in the changeover preferring to save money an operate a lean maintenance division. We experienced the results of that decisions.
I think we did pin our hopes on a dramatic change in service in a change of management. We can all hope.
Thanks for dredging through all the old threads, Blokeofthewest01.
Yes thank you for your opinions, hopeforbetter
However, I thought alot of the older threads as you say required my input, as im sure any other user would and has the right to. Thank you again, hopeforbetter and have a nice day. Cheers.
