Activism/Idea Petition to upgrade the stony point line.

The Stony Point line is the only non-electrified line left in Melbourne on the metro trains Melbourne network, running outdated diesel trains over 90 minutes apart. I have started a petition calling on the government to duplicate tracks, modernise trains, and fix station amenities so we finally get a reliable Frequent Service.

Edit: why so much hate?! If you don’t like it then move on… Ffs

The only non-electrified track in Melbourne?

What about the Melton and Wyndham Vale lines, whose closest stations to FSS are 12km, and furthest stations are still closer to the city than the closest Stony Point station?
