Aren't they replacing the current line with trains that hold less people? So it's not really more public transport.

more badly designed and inappropriate public transport... the proposed line is joke and woefully designed

Bernard, so are all these transport planners NIMBYs too? http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/gridlocked-and-unworkable-dire-warning-for-sydneys-trains-from-former-top-execs-20171213-h03omz.html …

Maybe they just don't trust the regime not to play bait and switch.
-
it's wasting money to replace the same rail line with less capacity trains, using more power for more trains
-
I can see that, but you also suspect that their commitment to light rail would be less than to heavy rail.

Ripping out all the signalling & comms from perfectly good existing train system 2 be replaced by inferior standing room only

Careful with the indiscriminate-subway-building-meme. We did in Barcelona and now we have a 16bn subway line we can't pay for.

this is the line that is slow and has lots of delays right?
-
not really more than the others. With so much of Sydney without trains why not spend the money on new lines?
