Broken rail inside the Millers St level crossing near Seaholme station. 40km/h speed restriction over the broken rail. This is the second broken rail in a level crossing on the Altona Loop in a month.

Strange operation on the Frankston line this weekend. Buses replace trains between Cheltenham and Carrum due to works at Mordialloc, but due to the location of the crossover near Carrum trains need to go ahead to Bonbeach before returning over the crossover back to Carrum 🧵

I believe I was the only passenger on the 14:45 Marshall to Southern Cross service today, until we got to South Geelong. The points from Marshall platform 1 up to the main line are 80km/h.

This train is terminating at Flinders Street, but the desto is already showing the next trip to Dandenong. Any other train type would just be displaying "Flinders Street" until the new driver jumped on. Very good somebody thought to put this in, even working with altered running.
