  • 109 is the best option. You never know what types of people you will encounter especially in Richmond. The song is on point accuracy and you can say I was on the 109

  • This is a great example of a resilient network. Sure it's faster to take the train, but trams and busses are a great alternative during disruptions, and they also travel to different intermediate destinations. More Melbourne stations should be like Box Hill

  • I frequently travel to the city from box hill. A neat little fact: some peak weekday services travel express from box hill - Richmond, which takes only 20 minutes. Box hill is probably also the most disgusting station on the network.

  • "Almost all trains will not stop at East Richmond" ...... one of Melbourne's ongoing truisms. I think the station is only still standing so the operator can claim a route is semi-express by not stopping at one station.

  • There's a station in Wellington that's also called Box Hill, but it's nothing like the busy interchange at a shopping centre. Instead, it's a tiny single-track station on a sharp curve and the Johnsonville Line.

    • Have you tried to travel on The Overland? It's over $250 for an economy seat, and is slow because of the Cargo trains. Keswick Rail Terminal is not in the Adelaide CBD, nor is there a link to get you there. Only the evening bus runs direct to Adelaide. The morning one goes via Bendigo and Donald to Horsham.

  • Enjoyable video once again. Well done. Are there enough stations in Melbourne like this to make this a series? 🤔 I take the 903 part of the way to my work. Considering how long the route is it is surprisingly reliable, especially in the morning.

    • I agree, I take the 903 from Coburg every day to get between school and work, and when going to my mums house I sometimes take it a nearly 2 hour journey from coburg to box hill. Very reliable in the morning, at most a few minutes off, but after my work at 9:30-10:30 much less reliable

  • Bit of fun. I can say from personal experience, the 109 is not too terribly impacted by traffic unless it's really, really peak level driving. Funnily this probably is partly due to just how many stops it has to make anyway. But yeah, I don't think traffic has added too much to my trip except maybe once or twice. Train is usually easiest if you're committed to getting into the CBD, but tram has more opprtunity to get off early and catch some connecting services to inner-inner-suburbs, so it can be the best option a lot of the time if you're looking to go somewhere near Carlton or something.

  • Box Hill Central is a complete disaster as a transport interchange. It was built blatantly as a shopping centre, taking over railway land. Buses and trains are separated by two levels, pushing through congested retail zones, and via a narrow and slow escalator. There are bus routes which avoid it, notably the direct routes to Melbourne Airport, and all rail-replacement buses. The railway zone was built with the wrong layout, making interchange between express and stopping trains awkward: works towards the city, but fails doubly from the city. Not only a platform change, but the timetable lets an express overtake a stopper at last minute, so people changing have to wait for the next. Skipping East Richmond is useless: the validity expired over 40 years ago.

Only runs I can do end to end and back to the changeover is on weekend mornings. Not even the 4:57 ex Mordi on weekdays is 3 hrs. It gets to Altona at 8:37.

  • I wouldn't call Box Hill a 'cultural centre'. I lived there 10 years. I hate it now, it's a craphole. People don;t really tend to flock to it, The shopping centre is awful and the station run down, especially the bus interchange, though they have painted it, so it looks a little better, but it's a pretty cold, desolate place in winter. There is a lift, but it is at the other end of the shopping centre and you have to struggle through the crowded food court to get to it Re the bus interchange, did you know there are actually 2 ramps that the buses use? One in Carrington St (to the south, though the ramps turns as it comes up) and the other in Station St to the east. Did you also realise that there is one bus bay out of use? I think they did that as there is a bingo centre (and the only lift access to the bus interchange) across from it and having a bus parked there made it dangerous to cross. Great video though, I really enjoyed it.
