Story by the Pig’s Arms Transport Correspondent Ly Trail
After more than fifty years off Sydney’s streets, the Emerald city is set to see the re-emergence of this much-tooted and allegedly efficient and cheap form of transport.
To avoid the problem of what to do with buses while the city re-lays tracks, in its infinite wisdom, Transport NSW has decided to go for the new-fangled trackless trams.
When questioned about this move, the Minister, Gladys Brzyklerianisky said that the new trackless trams would be like a string of those red bendy super buses.
When questioned further, she agreed that they would in fact actually BE a string of those red bendy super buses – much like those that can be seen during peek hour (which is always a good time to look).
So, maintaining its cutting edge stance on public transport, the NSW government has forged ahead with a “back to the past to the future and all stops to the present” policy.
There’s nothing like progress, is there ? And this is certainly nothing like progress.
Bon Voyage, punters !
You failed tell us about the man walking front of this contraption with the white flag to warn people, Therese. These of course will help the queueing of them on the Harbour Bridge in the morning peek no end. I can’t wait to see what’s in store next week for my return to work.

I can see the Seek ad now, Algy “Keen pedestrian, white flag experience essential must have own transport” 🙂
