I'm an atypical user of rail transport as an age pensioner who lives in a suburb on the fringe of the city. My main reason for going to the CBD is to attend medical specialist appointments.
Since I've used the convenient rail network, I will not use motor vehicle drives to the CBD. That would be a no-brainer (for me).
I'm encouraged to know there is a reliable Translink train service I can use.
The bigger problem for me is the facilities at these suburban railway stations. Parking is ridiculously inadequate and many steps/arches over the railway line are unable to be used by me because of my severe heart condition.Some of these arches are being upgraded but many are poor timber structures.
