Connex Derails away from transporters


Derailed in the morning at 7.10am, a train caused massive delays at Oakleigh today. It's now 3pm and the delays are still unfixed.

Was I angry? Well, yeah sort of. I mean, this has happened far too many times in the recent weeks. How the hell does a train derail anyways? Obviously going too fast, or the driver is somewhat inexperienced. I don't know. Whatever.

Connex spokesman Andrew Cassidy said a signal fault occurred at 6.50am, and at 7.10am a train approaching the station derailed.

"The front carriage came off the tracks, but the remaining five carriages are on the tracks and there's no injuries and no damage," Mr Cassidy said earlier.

"We've been trying to get buses to run between Caulfield and Springvale, we've had four buses run from 7.30am and we were unable to get any more at this stage because they will be taking kids to school."
