Thought i'd post some Australian Railways Info as i have a passing interest in the Queensland Victoria and NSW Networks
The Victorian Government the other day placed an Order for more of my favorite unit types the Alstom X’Trapolis i believe these are part built in La Rochelle France and 40% i think is built in Aus at Ballarat Victoria these may be the last 5x6 car units built for Victoria as i hear there organizing a strategy that will stop small orders like this. The Xtrapolis UK was originally one of the ideas muted for Thameslink
