Reported service disruptions rail - no longer in use

[SurfRail]

I've always found it less good here.

We may be travelling on different networks I think. 

I tend to always get caught on the Western or South lines for some reason (2 of the last 3 trips down there involved detraining at Granville, including one emergency due to failed overhead).  Apart from the general state of manners of the average Sydneysider, the vehicles and speed with which they are dispatched is less than impressive, even for scheduled rail replacement.

Train network delays (multiple lines)

Outbound train services travelling from Central to the Gold Coast/Beenleigh and Cleveland lines are delayed up to 15 minutes due to a track fault at Central Station.  These outbound trains will depart from platform 5 at Central Station.

Inbound trains arriving at Central from the Ferny Grove, Sunshine Coast/Caboolture, Shorncliffe and Doomben lines may be delayed up to 10 minutes and will arrive on platform 5 at Central Station.

Queensland Rail technicians are on site working to remedy the track fault.

[Stillwater]

The purpose of the weekend shutdown of lines for maintenance had to do with improving train reliability by checking and fixing signalling, points etc.  This past year, train delays due to some track or equipment failure seem to have got worse, the odd kamikaze pigeon not withstanding.
