Re: U/C: Electrification & Upgrade of the Adelaide Rail Netw

I can just remember when the Supertrains (2000 Class Jumbo's) were delivered in the early 80's. They were considered so modern and advanced for Adelaide at the time. These A-City (4000 Class) trains are a quantum leap over the 2000 & 3000 class and are going to look amazing when they are put int...

[COM] Re: VIS: 27lvl Commercial & Entertainment tower - Festival P

I think the tower component of this proposal will be a good thing for the Riverbank precinct and the City as a whole. However, The fact that the proposed Eastern annexe takes over the festival plaza area and removes the option to setup a 'Federation Square' type events space is wrong wrong wrong. Th...

Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide Airport & Airlines

I just finished reading this article too. I'm very pleased that people are supporting this new service and if they put on an additional daily service via Asia, that will be the icing on the cake. :) All we need now is for Qantas to increase their flights to/from Canberra and to get rid of the awful ...
