Which trams do you prefer for the L1: CAF Urbos 3? Or Alstom Citadis X05 (305)?
@eefrail2 жыл бұрын
Honestly I don’t mind both but i think the Citadis on the L1 line

Ahh that rain you get down there in Sydney is rare up here in Bris-vegas, send it north please Phill. Great to see the L1 open again, Still for me at least, one of the more interesting light rail Routes because of the lines historic use.

I prefer these trams to the CAF. I take this line to work daily. The ride is way more smoother than the CAF and much more standing room. I don't know if it was the tram or the driver but the CAF was very uncomfortable if you are standing.

Thanks very much for a great visit back on the L1. I am glad they came to their senses to use the Randwick/Kingsford equipment as a fill in. These look kind of grander than the other stuff? You did well behind the advertising you have encouraged me to have another go at videoing. I need to do as you did and avoid most of the faces up close. Always prefer fine days if we can get them. Well done!

I think it could easily go from Dulwich Hill to Convention Station in 20 min instead of 30 min , but I guess either for passenger comfort or they are holding something back for future use. 25 min to Central would be a dream , but I suppose time and efficiency is not high on their list.

thanks for the video! I saw a few of them roll past today while I was in the city but didn’t get a chance to ride any. Interesting that the displays don’t have the L1 stops programmed in…maybe they think of this as very temporary and not worth the effort, even if the original trams might be out of commission for 18 months.
@sydneytrainsvlogs2 жыл бұрын
I found that very interesting, i thought that the stopping pattern would have been quite easy to program. It’s good that there are announcements at each stop though.

Perhaps it’s because of no traffic and it’s ballast. Also do you know why Newcastle LR isn’t called L4? I would’ve thought that all light rails in NSW will be numbered.
