Insufficient Sleeping Cars On Forbes Mall Train
The Minister for Transport explained to MLA Dring that Forbes Mall’s sleep car shortage limits berths on the Inter-State service to Broken Hill. One 29 berth car is typically attached, and demand on three days a week often requires two divisions, making extra sleeping cars impractical. Also noted, a Western District Rugby League relay event is set for Parkes next Sunday.
