Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide Metro Trains

Manufactured in Australia at Bombardier’s Dandenong plant (originally owned by Comeng), with a shell based on the locally-designed VLine VLocity trains. My point was that Labor is calling Keolis Downer a "foreign company" because of the Keolis part of the joint venture. Downer is an Austr...

Isn't the Adelaide City Council notorious for keeping Adelaide in the 70's? Here in Melbourne we have the opposite problem, we are getting shocking things erected that don't even resemble buildings. 50s actually. They're excited by this thing called the automobile No offence meant here, but why do ...

I wouldn't. Unless this in an amazing design, there are enough dumpy 50-60 metre buildings lining King William Street. Once it is there it won't be going anywhere, so if it takes decades for something better to be built then so be it. A well designed 50m building is bester than a poor or average 10...
