I don’t know why people get so excited about a rail link.

Sydney did it, but only with an Olympics looming, and they made it cost so much it’s cheaper to get a cab into the city with more than 1 person.

It’s not an express, it doesn’t take you anywhere fast.

The Melbourne one will be the same. In fact, I think I heard Skybus (it’s main competition) will be one of it’s major shareholders. So I’m guessing it won’t be price competitive with the existing options.

Don’t for one minute think you’ll be getting a cheaper or quicker route to the airport... Ten Billion dollars later...
