Any confirmation that Bundanoon will be unmanned this time next year.

More nails in the coffin?

As soon as ARTC converts the current block signalling between Moss
Vale and Medway Junction, the signallers will be withdrawn. As part
of the resignalling project, there is a push to delete the exisitng
trailing cross-over between the up and down lines, and so force the
abandonment of the local terminating Endeavour railcar services.

Exeter is no longer manned by a ticket seller, on a signaller who is
not permitted to sell tickets.

Not only Endeavour services, but steam services (3801) as well!

3801 Limited (and the RTM) runs tours to Bundanoon throughout the year.

Cheers, Gabi.

There is the alternative of continuing to Medway Junction to run round
and/or cross to the up track.

That will be the only alternative but it is still a lot of dead running.
