Youd think that if you have three live music events happening in the city that PTV would at least schedule extra trains but no. Crush capacity HCMT on a Tuesday night. Oh well. Maybe we have to wait till February for the new timetable to fix this.

For those of you in Australia (especially QLD) and care about trans rights make your voice heard! This is crazy stuff to pull as the minister of "health" to ban puberty blockers after the supreme court decision. Write to your MP's, email the minister, or even just sign the petition. #transrights 🏳️‍⚧️ 🇦🇺

Now that I am in Europe seeing Navilens codes on products is so nice. Put em on everything please!

Love it when the airport has a bus that takes you all of 15 seconds to your plane and fits about a fourth of the total passengers of the flight

The Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals is great and all but I will forever believe that the 'No Parking' signs convey absolutely 0 information compared to the Australian 'No Parking' sign which at least clarifies directionality.

Just experienced dread trying to search for "SMI wikipedia" on DuckDuckGo hoping to get Samos International Airport (who's ICAO code is "SMI") but instead being reminded about the lack of three letter acronyms and abbreviations.

"If you travel most days, you may save money with myki Pass"
🤔 We've got a smartcard ticketing system. It should be smart enough to automatically charge a Pass fare.
Many cities have automatic weekly caps - the current revamp is a chance for the government to add it to #Myki.

I get switches and infrastructure but for the extra cost of chucking a giant battery in every bus you could probably afford to put more wire up.
June 5, 2025 at 8:01 AM
See. it's right there. You have a battery bus running under wires, followed by a trolley bus. Why!?
June 5, 2025 at 8:01 AM
Athena trolley busses are cool, I just wish they'd stop running battery busses right underneath the wires :/

More than ten years worth of Australia’s emissions in a single facility for export. There is nothing that the Labor party could do this term - or ever - that could bring it back from the impact of this decision for climate harms.

Absolutely evil.

My dog Lola. Adopted just last year and me and the rest of my family feel like life is so much fuller with her.

Suburban Rail Loop is such an ambitious project that I hope will make it out alive on the other side of the Victorian state elections. If built it would drastically change Melbourne and its transport. Connecting two large universities and 6 existing rail lines in just the first stage.

Ever wonder why no service understand any of the special event trams in Melbourne? Because the data is completely missing from PTV / Yarra Trams. Why? No clue. So when the network is at capacity during an event and you pull up Google Maps. Good luck. Do better Vic Gov.

Back to minor delays now but Upfield has an equipment outage?
March 16, 2025 at 2:05 AM
Say it with me now "This is why we need proper GTFS!"

Don't need to worry about being cold when you're packed into a tram at crush capacity.
March 15, 2025 at 11:50 PM
Major Delays Delays up to 50 minutes due to a police request near South Yarra. Select services may remain stationary for extended periods at platforms or between platforms. Trains may terminate/originate from intermediate stations
March 15, 2025 at 11:48 PM
Confirmed all 4 lines not running to city and back.
March 15, 2025 at 11:46 PM
Anyone on the Cranbourne, Pakenham, Frankston, and potentially Sandringham Lines be warned. Vehicle crashed into a bridge at South Yarra. No train movements beyond Caulfield.
March 15, 2025 at 11:39 PM
Lovely work PTV. Give me a train to run to, only to find it terminates at Flinders St with no warning. Thankfully they actually provided an easy cross platform transfer to an in service train. But y'know. Telling me that before shoving me off the train would have been nice 👍.

The Aus GP has a special express tram service 96a, but it doesn't appear anywhere in the PTV. So instead it generates these weird trips instead of PTV just providing the correct data for it to use. Shouldn't be that hard for them to do but alas.
