This was emailed out at work.. not sure how bad it is:

Please be advised that there are lengthy delays on the North Shore, Western & Northern Lines

CityRail advises that trains have been suspended on the North Shore Line between Gordon and Wynyard in both directions due to a train requiring mechanical repairs near Milsons Point. Lengthy delays can be expected. Flow on delays to Northern and Western Line services from the City will be experienced.

Bus companies are being contacted to operate a replacement service between Gordon and Wynyard until train services can resume. Sydney buses recognising rail tickets between Wynyard & North Sydney in both directions.

CityRail recommends travellers delay their journey or make alternative arrangements.

Police and emergency services are in attendance. At this stage there is no forecast of when the line can be reopened. Further information will be provided as it becomes available.

I can see all the commotion on the bridge from my desk. I can't make out the train but I can see all the fire trucks etc. looks like I'm going to be staying back tonight and having a few refreshments.

"looks" ok at the moment.

Remember it's school holidays and uni is on holidays too. So just the workers. But yea maybe traffic, sux to live up north!

doodz, no freaking way is that camera live. I'm looking out my window right now and being only about 500m from the bridge I can tell you it's chocka block with emergencey crews etc. the Cahill is even worse heading north (looks ok heading south).

Well that just sucks....working in north sydney and living on the central coast.

Being peak hour there will be a lot of people on the replacement buses.

I guess there is only one thing you can do in a situation like this....go to the pub until the problem is sorted!! If the problem aint sorted, then going home with a few beers in my belly will make the long journey a little easier!

    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
