Love for new metro

Well, I love the new metro. Waterloo to City in a few minutes. Chatswood, 17 minutes. The trains are spotless, the stations sparkling and the staff smiling. Very impressive.

Waterloo metro station, aside from being a major piece of Sydney transport infrastructure for us in Waterloo/Redfern/Alexandria, is actually useful. I admit my reservations and disappointment about not getting a full rail upgrade but I’ll be using it. Living on Raglan Street, it’s just down the hill to the City – to four city locations, approximately 20 minutes to Crows Nest, Chatswood, North Ryde.

To give you a better example, whilst typing this I looked up and am at Chatswood. Wonderful, excellent, fantastic!
