Sydney trains have a guard who controls the doors and ensures the safe travel of passengers. Melbourne got rid of guards in the early 90s to save costs.

Why because Melbourne has Trams? Our rail system is nowhere near as good as Sydney's. Trams are great I admit and our Bus network is by far the worst of any capital city. It truly sucks.

So in Melbourne they use to have a double decker train which is called the 4D build by goniana in 1991 before they enter service 1992 until they had major issue with the brakes until it was withdrawn in 2006. So thats why all of the Melbourne railways only runs signal decker right now, In Sydney we have a industrial strike due to the new Intercity train.

Double deck trains might look cool, but they're really not necessary for suburban rail when loading and unloading is frequent. If anything, they can be a hindrance in peak hour as passengers can tend to trip over eachother trying to get in and out of only two doors in every carriage. Just slows things down. There's a reason why all new planned lines in Sydney are going to be for single deck trains for now on.

@tropictrains8956

Жыл бұрын

The new lines are metro trains that are driverless which aren’t replacing the double deck trains and it doesn’t always slow things down passengers have 2 decks to move around and Melbourne train doors don’t open automatically making the passengers open the doors which also slow things down

Melbourne years ago tried double decker trains but they didn't take off. Reason is that double decker trains stay longer on platform to let people off and in Melbourne , stations tend to be closer together.

A lot of places with colder climates in Europe have button operated doors for the purpose of keeping the train cabin warm. That’s also the case on many regional trains in the UK.

Melbourne has rather bipolar weather therefore to keep climate control within the trains, the doors must be power operated, Melbourne trains are also better fit to the population density hence the single deck only design to deal with dwelling time at stations, And yes looking at the comments a modified Tangara was once tested here, although which has been scrapped due to failures that is it doesnt mean melbourne shouldnt consider double deckers in the future!

And she said the message code to me and then at home I could barely remember it and I did the code anyway and then it said the code has declined. And I was very sad cuz she was actually going to Sydney to live there forever and I missed her but then to cheer up I watched some shorts then a few weeks or months later that’s when I found out I’m going to Sydney for six days and I was happy but sad at the same time I said there is a high chance that I could see my bestie there! Btw my besties name is zara or Zahara anyways my mum said well Sydney is very big honey and I was super stressed that I would not be able to find her. So I was like oh ok😢and 3 day later it was ten more days to go to Sydney! And then I was like omg I should tell my mum what Zara’s name and face looks like on my report card then my mum said ok I’ll look at it in the morning and I said her sir name must be on there! And my mum said it must be on there if it is I will find it on Facebook and tell them what’s there code then we tell them ur code and then ta-da!
