Train service off the rails

A PEAK hour train service on the Pakenham line has been labelled a “ghost train,” by a local MP.
The 5.16pm train from the city was cancelled three times in January and at least five times in February so far.
South East Metropolitan MP Inga Peulich said it was disappointing that a peak hour service for Greater Dandenong commuters was regularly cancelled. “The 5.16pm service is one of the main peak hour services provided to cater for Melbourne CBD workers who commute from Casey, Cardinia and Greater Dandenong,” Ms Peulich said.
“But your new service is in fact a ghost train or phantom.”
Ms Peulich said the train services on the Cranbourne and Pakenham lines were “deplorable”
