Old Cooma Sydney Time Table.jpg

Hi Vernon
The old tracks are still there but the only trains in Cooma now are static, there are train enthusiasts who have done up the Cooma station and have a few carriages sitting there . The Breadbo station is still and there are tracks still from Canberra but unusable. Really stupid as thousands come down by car and bus to the ski slopes when they could have come by train.
Thanks for that post I will keep it.
Cheers Des

Funny thing, ben here in Oz for 45 years.
Never been on a bus, only twice on a train and maybe a dozen trips on a tram.

Drive man drive where ever you go.

Hi John in Oz, Similar to you, been here in Victoria for over 53 years and never been on a bus, tram or train. Only been on a plane a couple of times for work, driven anywhere else that I needed to go to, love driving but becoming limited in the distance that I can manage these days due to arthritis in the hands and shoulders. Anyway thankful to still be standing and enjoying this site with like minded people.

I rarely use the bus, but recently took a short trip of about 2 miles on one of those small local buses; it was clean and the seats comfortable and access was good, but the noise and vibration was terrible, and became worse everytime it stopped, I was pleased to get off.

No bloody idea mate.
It will vary from state to state, but here in Victoria free bus at the wekend and I am told some free train.

Over here John bus anytime free, train free outside of rush hour. Issued with a travel card if a senior. JS

Hi John
Used to be the same in Sydney but not entirely free, the train ticket was usable all day even if you changed trains and destination. here in Cooma we have a bus that roams around one can wave it down and ask to be taken where one wants in Cooma.
