More Train Carriages Required!

A delightful lady called Carol from Penrith originally from Emu Plains, now walks to Penrith station from her home and has been travelling for 10 years by public transport on trains and  generally states she has a good train service. She catches the country trains and her husband catches the suburban train.

She has found the country trains are more reliable and efficient compared to the suburban train services. As she finds seating on the 4.18pm Parramatta to Penrith suburban train to be full when it normally reaches Parramatta , thus leaving commuters at Parramatta fighting for seats. carol suggests that more carriages be added on trains allowing more seating for travelling commuters.

On the positive, she finds travelling by train feeling stress-free - compared to driving cars and  had a stern comment to make to NSW Government Planners: do not build up suburbs and after the entire suburb is built then build the transport infrastructure.
