This section of Spencer Street north of Lonsdale Street carried no regular passenger routes at that time. Tram 759 was converted to an SW5 in 1985. 3393

Declan Martin @declanmartin.bsky.social · 11/03/2025I've been doing quite a few cross City FKN-NPT trips recently and it really irks me how unreliable the cross city component is. Third time in a week my "Frankston" train from footscray has terminated @ Flinders Street (with zero driver announcement I might add.) Real sloppy from MTM. 5182

Declan Martin @declanmartin.bsky.social · 20/02/2025You know Im truly doing my best to avoid consuming and thinking about news coming out the USA at the moment. But the thing is, its not possible. Every corner you turn there's some story or comment on Trump/Musk/Ukraine etc. its unavoidable and I hate it. Our future is uncertain and it freaking sucks 2171

Declan Martin @declanmartin.bsky.social · 27/01/2025Queensland Rail have been running commuter catch ups this year. Many UK rail operators also have "meet the manager" sessions. Doesn't happen in Melbourne - I think it should though. (If I'm right in saying we used to hold them but not anymore.) 3171
Declan Martin @declanmartin.bsky.social · 25/01/2025A look around Central Station in Sydney, which has undergone some serious modernisation in recent years. Its absolutely stunning to put it simply. A really good place to start and end an intercity journey. Well done Sydney. 9655

Declan Martin @declanmartin.bsky.social · 24/01/2025Had the displeasure of missing a 703 bus by mere seconds only to find the next service was over 20 minutes away. There's 4 buses per hour so theoretically should be every 15 minutes... But Ventura's timetable is so damn patchy that there's gaps up to 24 minutes. Really weakens a "premium" service. 3262
