Perth Station above-ground island platform 9 left to Ellenbrook PID 7 mins for 3-car B-Series while a 2-car A-Series 303 dwells for this route, platform 8 to the rightfacing east is a Midland service in 1 minute with a 4-car A-Series. 4 and 16 minutes later are 3-car B-Series services to High Wycombe on the Airport Line.

Rainy day, construction fencing to detour walk from the western sky bridge and lifts to ground level for bus users between the Airport and its detached underground train station to bus stops that partly serve the business parks on the outer edge of Perth Airport property. Transperth, the City of Belmont, Perth Airport Pty Ltd, WA government have not installed more than a bus stop totem. With your back towards the offices of the richest person in Australia, Roy Hill - Hancock Prospecting, you walk through mulch and trampled grass and sand to the concrete pad-less bus stop on Horrie Miller Drive.

Bus stops for routes 36, 37, and another stop Rail Replacements. The walk from Airport Central has not been covered from rain or scorching sun, as the dropped kerbs do not align under the Sky Bridge. The bus path is concrete next to asphalt road, the rail bustition bay cannot hold more than one articulated bus in length. The bus stop kerbs are not elevated enough as normal elsewhere througout Perth metro. There are two short bus shelters here. There is no direct level access to Airport Central as the station concourse is still very subterrenan.

There, the first time I've used the Airport Line on not-opening days. One time is enough to beat never gone Yancheap extension for real shit. #Metronet

Pariah-ful experience if you dare take a #Transperth bus, tHaNks no thanks Perth Airport Pty Ltd and limp Liberal and Labor state government since.

Gate-less fare station, Queens Park facing east under the elevated rail viaducts. The opposite side of the station is park'n'ride. PID for Byford in 1 minute for a 3-car, then 10 minutes to Cockburn via Thornlie. To Perth is 19 minutes for a 2-car, then 26 minutes. 2 roll-through lifts per side platforms.

Long Park under Queens Park station, yellow sign "Water HQ 150m, Queens Park Community Hub 200m, Rail yard Play Space 200m, Cannington Youth Plaza 200m". Coloured concrete art on the pathway intersection, orange and shades of grey painted viaduct pylons, concrete bench with non-hostile wooden bench and backrest. Evacuation stairway on the right near bike parking U-rails.

Knee-height orange poles with USB A, C, and wireless charging.

Map of the Long Park ™ surrounding Queens Park station, overhead map and side profile distance and names of facilities. Metronet and City of Canning logos, de-Trans-ed of Transperth markings.

I spent too much time at Carlisle and Oats St, and TCL extension stations that on opening day only faffed about Queens Park to Beckenham at platform level.

Long Park ™ has outdoor USB charging poles, A, C, maybe wireless; not switched on when I was there today. #Metronet

Thornlie - Cockburn Line might have dogshit 15 minute headways that cannot meet peak demand for existing Thornlie station customers. PTA, more trains!

I have used Yanchep extension zero times after opening, but half a dozen plus more on TCL. #Metronet Strictly commuter YAN, there's nothing there.

rip me
I did set the TRANSPERTH Byford extension opening in my calendar, but did not add enough reminders before it.
#ByfordSnackCrawl not planned beyond the pre-existing #Phoday in Armadale.
#Metronet construction project, boo to the WA state government trying to detrans Transperth.

Perth Station platform 3 is still unchanged, ie the exhaust hoods are center of each car.

Fuck ass concrete dust suppression.

Not- #Metronet
I get it removing personnel from the danger area and not manually hosing down, but the concrete dust is not meeting the water misting cannon. It is travelling to pedestrian and staff buildings down wind at the Stirling station bus bridge.

Broadband competition works! Apparently #Mediacom #Xstream dropped their data caps back in March, probably due to #Metronet and other ISPs that don't have them

Peering through the glass from TCL platform 4, at the unmodified Australind platform at overground Perth Station.

Where are the Alstom Australind DMUs? Did Bunbury Terminal and Perth Station platform 3 get nothing too? Same oil drenched sleepers? #Metronet Is the Comeng Australind retvrning?

Poster inside a B-Series train. Central headline: Metronet. ELEVATE AND Celebrate ... the reopening of the Armadale Line. OCT 12, 10am to 3pm. Art features 2 separate C-Series coloured objects, but running as single-units with only 2 doors per side. Text for rebuilt stations Carlisle, Oats Street, Queens Park, Cannington, Beckenham, Armadale, Byford. Heritage stations are not mentioned.

Why the C-Series 6-car trainset for both Thornlie -Cockburn Line and now Armadale Line reopening? Both lines have 4-car limited platforms. #Metronet State government, extend the platforms, existing Thornlie passengers are getting pumped on 4-car A-Series.

Shorten the headways please.

I'm genuinely sad that Transperth has done nothing about making the train and station PIDs actually useful with the C-Series rollout. #Metronet More colours, more dots on the matrix.

Another 3 car all the way to Mandurah. Going to be so late.

Is C-Series set 136 the last set out of Bellevue, months and months ago? #Metronet

Less than a half an hour into the show, my Metronet fiber Internet, newly acquired by T-Mobile, has shit the bed and cut the show short today. Awesome, way to go everybody! What a bunch of winners!

Armadale to Byford. FYI Locoman persists with his camcoder at both low bitrates and really choppy framerate for reasons, so the quadcopter footage is whiplash of the current July 2025 ready rail equipment while the stations need work. #Metronet

Cockburn Central platform level PIDs, to Mandurah in 8 minutes (3-car), then 18 minutes. To Perth via Murdoch in 6 minutes (6-car), then 16 minutes.

The most central vacant plot in Cockburn Central, a tower crane at night loams over two lift shafts and the tower construction underneath .

Ranford Road Station, entrance canopy with undelighting as the sun sets to the west behind the bike shelter, with zero bikes or anything inside.

Ambiguous right of way of the semi fenced off, bidirectional shared path running through the centre of Ranford Road Station bus interchange. Pedestrian areas are in red clay and yellow brick pavers, grey tactile indicators does not indicate the presence of the bike lane. The shared path is dropped kerbs and Give Way signed to the busway, but pedestrians have zebra crossings to station.

FFS, 3-car all the way to Mandurah at 1830 on 10 minute (derogatory) headways.

Packed.

15 minute TCL schedule (vs 5 on core Yanchep -Mandurah) and meh bus reform, means journey planners still route your Thornlie -Cockburn Line area trips through Murdoch and Bull Creek. #Metronet

I can't not think about the C-Series as "vomits out people". Like 5-10 second dwell times, incredible with extra wide doors and an set of doors. #Metronet Bellevue though.
