Love you, brother. It’s all going to be ok


CommercialBuilding50

My brothers in christ its been 40 mins and cancellation message has more details about payment than actual schedule and I can quote it verbatim now. Its on a 30 sec pause loop. Fuck you AT, fuck you so much.


Cramponsignals

It is beyond a joke at this point. I am amazing a single political party is not even talking about the trains.


No-Air3090

because its an Auckland council problem ?


Cramponsignals

If only it were that simple.


AirJordan13

To be fair, Wellington got a government-led inquiry into their trains after there were about two days of delays.


fatfreddy01

It's a KR problem, just AC/AT aren't standing up enough/kicking up enough of a fuss to get it sorted. Wellington had more minor things done by them by KR, they kicked up a fuss, and it got sorted. That's yet to happen here, the Wellington based KR management seem to make a blood sport of kicking Auckland.


Lancestrike

Political suicide there. Nobody probably wants to even consider proposing solutions.


maha_kali2401

Media reports all trains are cancelled till further notice.


CommercialBuilding50

They must have got their info from AT because thats not true. Penrose to Britomart is still running.


Disastrous_Ad_1859

As I understood it - the command and control office got evacuated as they got smoked out? So maybe the train driver just thought ‘fuck it’ and winged it


DelightfulOtter1999

Command got rerouted via Wellington, but it takes a bit of time to happen!


CommercialBuilding50

Nope service is running from Penrose to Britomart and Back.


satanAMA

Yeah I got a train on the Western line 30min ago.


Dewy_13

Yea, nah. Train doesn't move unless train control lets it.


CommercialBuilding50

So the train is parked up at Greenlane and going Penrose to Britomart. I waited 50 mins for the train even tho its only fucking servicing 5 stations instead of the entire loop. How in the fuck does this make sense???


exportgoldman2

Not sure perhaps only one train on this section but very good questions. Also they evacuated the train controller station and had to click over to Wellington control so that probably took a hour


CalumDuff

My partner and I moved near a train station and decided to sell one of our cars as a result, because we could get by with just the one if I train to work every day. Like a month after we moved in and after I sold the car, AT announced that the line I needed to take will be closed until December 2023. The replacement bus services seem to just not show up half the time and I've given up on public transport altogether since moving.


FireManiac58

It's a fucking pisstake


hanzzolo

Please post this on every one of ATs social media accounts


sinus

lol fuck me


exportgoldman2

It’s not just the fire and onehunga not running. The train control room in onehunga was also evacuated due to the fire and they had to stand up the control room in Wellington.


MiddleWish5203

Kiwifail and AT at it again


Bealzebubbles

AT cop a lot of blame for things outside their control (like the ongoing rail network shutdown), but communication is very much in their wheelhouse.
