19 August, 2009dirty trains in SydneyFrom yesterday's news. Unlike beautiful Boston and picturesque Quincy, Sydney's CityRail (trains) and stations are way below the standards. NSW Premier Nathan Rees is spending $2.4 millions to add another 32 cleaners to clean the dirty trains and 15 hot-spot stations. However, there's a catch. Majority of train stations that would be cleaned are located in government's electorates, and only two stations in Opposition electorates would be cleaned. Opposition Leader Barry O'farrell pointed out that on CityRail's own list of the 10 dirtiest stations, 7 of them would not be cleaned by Premier's extra funding. The moral of the news... Want your train station sparkling clean? Make sure your local electorate is represented by the same party as the governing party in NSW. (to Don: Unlike beautiful Boston and picturesque Quincy, Sydney's trains and stations are without a doubt unacceptably dirty that the government has to spend millions of dollar to clean them.)

I guess you either forgot about my stories about the drunk and homeless guys on the train, or simply decided to ignore those.

You make it sound like there are no drunk and homeless guys here.

These stories pop up periodically. They are neither truly correct nor actually a lie. They are floated merely to take the heat off more sensitive subjects that the inept elected officials are unable/unwilling to address. Sydney's trains and stations are no cleaner or dirtier than the people who use them!
