December 02, 2020 I took this photo at Strathfield of Mariyungs finally out testing, late at night 5 years and 4 months later they finally enter service on the south coast line all thanks to the @RTBUnion

Fuck off @RTBUnion

Each of our driverless Metro trains has an "emergency driver" doing nothing because of an industrial protection racket. Easy to see why @RTBUnion is sensitive about the scam attracting attention.

That behaviour is almost as bad as anything the @RTBUnion has pulled

Bloody hell After being a union rep and more for the MEAA I gave up even when they were asking us to pay 10% of that Still better than being a member of the @RTBUnion I guess

having attendants on an automated metro system is fine and normal. are you sure they don't have them in montreal, i wouldn't be surprised.

No they only fight in unions where the members don’t really need them because they either have high skill jobs or are allowed to threaten sabotage to transport networks etc, it’s like elite universities pretending they do much except attract the already rich/smart students…

you should always be pro-union even if you disagree with specific points. They fight hard for their workers and their wages so don’t be a scab. Up the RTBU!

the attendants are fine, the Sydney trains are way bigger, get a lot more riders, and you need them for situations like when that door stayed open and the train was travelling at full speed as long as there’s only 1-2 and they don’t install drivers’ cabins

We need the cabins otherwise people will keep complaining that the Metro workers stand about doing nothing except lookingwt their phones.

These are the same trainsets from Alstom as the Sydney Metro where we have “attendants” and where @RTBUnion is demanding we put fake traindrivers cabins in The same trains, made in the same factory

Our condolences to the family, co-workers, friends & @RTBUnion comrades of the Sydney @TrainsInfo worker from Lithgow who died on the job today. We also hope the worker injured in the same incident recovers soon. abc.net.au/news/2025-11-06/b…

A sad day today as we said farewell to Uncle Rex Sorby. Uncle Rex was a much-respected Aboriginal Elder and a pillar of solidarity. I first met Uncle Rex more than 30 years ago in the union movement, when we were both defending the rights of workers in Western Sydney. A champion of our Western Sydney community, Uncle Rex served on the historic Holroyd Council Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Consultative Committee and Heritage Committees, playing a pivotal role in Cumberland Council's Schools Reconciliation Day commemorations on Prospect Hill. This annual event commemorates an important moment in Australian history, being the first recorded act of reconciliation between First Nations people and European settlers in 1805. A committed member of the Australian Labor Party, Uncle Rex was the first Aboriginal person to be elected to the Rail, Tram and Bus Union and served as President of the Labor Party's Guildford West Branch. Uncle Rex dedicated his life to service, reconciliation and social justice. My condolences go out to his wife, Margaret and all his family and friends. Uncle Rex, thank you for your life of service to our community. May you rest in peace. @NSWLabor @AustralianLabor @CumberlandSyd @DrDi4Greystanes @RTBUnion @nswparliament

The Mariyung trains should be modified with gun holes so feral animals such as rabbits and deer can be shot from the train. @RTBUnion

Every time I see those clowns just riding the metro it pisses me off. They are not performing any role whatsoever

Australian unions are a complete dead hand on society. Fuck the @RTBUnion Fuck @unionsaustralia

Thanks @RTBUnion for all your efforts messing with public transport. Why do you hate public transport?

Every. Frigging. Day. Maybe a rail system run by @RTBUnion isn’t such a great idea?
