Make sure you tap off when get off the bus or light rail. The MyWay card reader will only let you tap off when the bus and light rail arrive at a stop. What does it cost? MyWay fares are incurred for each single trip and depends on whether the travel is during the peak or off-peak times (off peak travel is between 9 am – 4.30 pm and after 6 pm weekdays, all weekend and on public holidays).

  • Some Recent Publicity from V/Line What Future for ACTION?
    “A journal of the Australian Association of Timetable Collectors” No. 174 January 2007 ISSN 1038-3697 RRP $2.95 Some recent publicity from V/Line Geoff Lambert visited Benalla recently and collected some current V/Line publicity extolling the virtues of their new Regional Fast Rail services and VLocity railcars. Ironically the Albury line was not included as part of the RFR line upgrades and service expansions. What future for ACTION? Ian Cooper presents a comprehensive report in this issue on the service changes for Canberra’s ACTION network that took effect from 5 December 2006 – described as the most significant in the history of the operator.

  • Radical New Thoughts on Train Operation in Our Big
    AUSTRALASIAN TIMETABLE NEWS No. 239, July 2012 ISBN 1038-3697 RRP $4.95 Published by the Australian Association of Timetable Collectors www.aattc.org.au Graphic from the Premier’s and Minister’s “Sydney’s Rail Future” announcement, 20 June 2012. The differentiation between the proposed “Rapid transit system” and “Improved Sydney Train services” may not be clear in black and white. The “Rapid transit system”, ie, frequent single-deck trains, are the fuzzier lines to Cudgeong Road (NW line) Hurstville, Lidcombe via Bankstown and Liverpool via Bankstown. RADICAL NEW THOUGHTS ON TRAIN OPERATION IN OUR BIG CITIES Sydney: NW Railway – Private operation and stand-alone The North West Railway will be franchised for operation by a private operator. The existing Chatswood to Epping line will be transferred to the operator. The operation will be as a stand-alone line. Passengers will be required to change trains at Chatswood to access the CBD. When the second Harbour Crossing is built, trains will operate through to the City – however, this may be 20 years away. Services on the NW line will be operated by single deck trains. Services are expected to operate every five minutes. NSW Transport Minister Gladys Berejiklian says the timetable will be rewritten to increase trains from Chatswood to the City from 16 to 20 in the peak hour. She has outlined how the line will fit in with her 20-year plan for the rail network. She says she has had to revise her vision. "I assumed when I became Transport Minister that double decks were the way to go but expert advice, community input, industry input, demonstrates to me and also looking at what happens around the world, the best way to go for the north-west rail line is single deck," she said.
