Catch the Train. 25-06-2024.

Good Morning,

Working on a plan for 2 new Rail services into Byron Bay,

One North

One South,

North , From the NORTH Byron Bay Hotel to Crabbes Creek

South, From South of the Bus Terminal to Lismore, or South of Browning Street.

Would this be even possible, I think so, what do others think.

Regards,

Brian Leedham.

 

 

NEWS- Passenger Expansion-NSW. 23-06-2024

 Morning,

A Question?

Can a service be supplied for Orange to Lithgow, with 3 Standard Gauge Carriages and a Locomotive each end, to run services by either SSR or LVR.

Would this Be a Good Idea.

The State of NSW needs more Rail Passenger services, to service the Rural Area's

There needs to be a service run to Griffith via Temora and Stockinbingal, this could be a 4 car consist, with 2 cars running on to Wagga Wagga or Albury.

A Service needs to be run from Dubbo to Cobar, and return.

The Railway Line to Bourke needs to be re-opened so it can have a Passenger service as well.

Tamworth to Glen Innes and Tenterfield. Twice a week maybe to get it started.

Bathurst already has 2 Bullet trains running to Sydney, Only fair that Orange get's a service.

Newcastle to Coffs or Grafton.

Newcastle to Wauchope, could go shopping in the Cities shopping Centres.

At the moment, Rollingstock, for Passenger services, has an availability Problem,

There4 are no Explorers or Endeavour Railcars available.

Unless a set gets piched from Woolongong or Newcastle.

It will be much easier when the Civity Railcars are in Service.

Maybe they can be put into service on the BH Line First, do their testing in the outback.

Of course a second service to Broken Hill, out on a Friday, and back on a Saturday.

Mail,

Parcels

Small palletts could be carried on these Trains as well.

Maybe a Vlocity set can be trailed in NSW.

That would help to get more Passenger services going.
