  Awesome…

  Doesn't make up for the 50 odd in fuel (and 60 odd in parking) I had to spend the other day on my way to Avalon because the gippsland line was out.

  Again.

    There were no coaches? There was no warning about the closure?

        Still the VLine coaches are quite nice. Not like the rail replacement buses which probably belong to the junkyard.
