Very Fast TRAIN Deja Vu???

[silverfaun]

It's just like deja vu, like it's the NSW  disease has reared it's ugly head again, why?? NSW Labor made an "announcement" every day in their last days  in power, they will finish the trains we were promised for decades.

Now we are presented with Rudd & Alanese trotting out the VVT in their dying days in government. It would be laughable if it wasn't so tragic & deceitful, all Rudd needs to top it off is a female to ignore on national TV.......wait!!! he's already done that.

As I said deja vu.

Another election, another fast rail promise

Labor likes promising fast rail projects it never delivers.

2007:

FEDERAL Labor leader Kevin Rudd has unveiled his vision for Sydney, promising a massive cash injection for the Penrith fast rail link and the M7 to F3 motorway and a new national infrastructure fund for the city.

2010:

The Government says if it is re-elected it will fund a study into a high-speed rail link along Australia’s east coast as well as commit to building an inland rail link between Brisbane and Melbourne. Transport Minister Anthony Albanese ... says the Government will commit $20 million to study the feasibility of a fast-speed rail link between Sydney and Newcastle…

Labor has also promised voters it will build an inland rail line between Brisbane and Melbourne via the New South Wales central west, including Parkes.

2013:

LABOR will kick in $52 million to start a multibillion-dollar project to deliver high-speed rail between Sydney and Melbourne by 2035.
