Vline Whinger: May 2006
http://vlinewhinger.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
A commentary on the efficiency of the V/Line Geelong to Melbourne commuter service as seen from the eyes of a peak-time traveller. Tuesday, May 16, 2006. Where is the Whinger? Has he self-immolated in a ball of rage? Fallen off the perch? Given up on the 9 5 rat-race and found a mountain to sit on and become a Guru Hermit? So I've been enjoying sleeping in for the past few weeks, but will be back on the train irregularly and hopefully regularly as I start looking for a job in earnest this week.

Vline Whinger: July 2005

A commentary on the efficiency of the V/Line Geelong to Melbourne commuter service as seen from the eyes of a peak-time traveller. Sunday, July 24, 2005. The calm of a Zen-Master. Ok, so it is Sunday now and I will write about Friday night's journey home. Generally I like to look on the positive side of life most of the time, this website is a "whinge" site I know, but I like to think most of my "blogs" are on the slightly humorous. A rather harried announcement came over advising that the 4.55pm was...

Vline Whinger: September 2005

A commentary on the efficiency of the V/Line Geelong to Melbourne commuter service as seen from the eyes of a peak-time traveller. Monday, September 12, 2005. A week of Grace . This week I don't really have much to whinge about simply because there will be no train travel for me, due to a changeover period between my old job and new job. Even though it is $79 or so down the tube for not using the trains (as I am in the middle of a 10 week ticket), I'm not that worried. See you all on the flip-side. Later...

A commentary on the efficiency of the V/Line Geelong to Melbourne commuter service as seen from the eyes of a peak-time traveller. Monday, April 18, 2005. After an uneventful morning journey on the 5.28am to Melbourne, I made the mistake of rushing to catch the 16.40 service back to Geelong in the afternoon. It was the same old story, no locomotive attached to the carriages, which definitely precludes one from expecting a departure at approximately the scheduled time. My sources tell me that Geelong comm...

A commentary on the efficiency of the V/Line Geelong to Melbourne commuter service as seen from the eyes of a peak-time traveller. Monday, February 27, 2006. Could I run a better train service? I thought a comment on my previous blog entry deserved a full reply here. Anonymous' wrote " Look you guys that are having a go at Vline, do you think that you could make trains run on time? Check the comments on 3rd Day Lucky blog for where this came from). Another example, is the comments reflected by senior v/l...

A commentary on the efficiency of the V/Line Geelong to Melbourne commuter service as seen from the eyes of a peak-time traveller. Saturday, June 18, 2005. The adventures of Bus-Man and his off-sider Tram-Boy. After a long weekend, it was back to buses for a few weeks whilst more 'upgrades' are made to the Geelong line. I wonder if this means we might have the V'locity trains running before the end of this year? Yep, I'm the stupid guy who can't put his ticket in the right way to be validated! Last week ...

A commentary on the efficiency of the V/Line Geelong to Melbourne commuter service as seen from the eyes of a peak-time traveller. Friday, May 27, 2005. And a sickness descended upon him . Well, V/Line has been safe from my whinges this week only because I've spent the week at home trying to recover from a particularly nasty cold and cough that laid me out in bed for 3 days. The irony is that the previous week I had gotten my flu shot! Posted by vlinewhinger at 6:49 pm. Friday, May 20, 2005. Still no sig...

From Apathy to Resigned Frustration in 1 Easy Step. Greetings and Salutations from the apathetic whinger! However, I've been able to bear the usual 2 or 3 times a week of typical inconveniences until tonight. Not only was the 4.40pm late (track upgrade/signal upgrade of $millions and we still go slow? HAHAHA, yeah right! Ps we'll never know the true...

A commentary on the efficiency of the V/Line Geelong to Melbourne commuter service as seen from the eyes of a peak-time traveller. Monday, April 17, 2006. One year on . It is around a year that I started writing this blog. I think almost to the day. A year ago the 16.40 was the train I complained most about, and a year later nothing has really changed. I really can't add to anything more that has been said, other than what I have said in the past. I pay for a service that is not being delivered as mu...
