This was emailed out at work.. not sure how bad it is:

Please be advised that there are lengthy delays on the North Shore, Western & Northern Lines

CityRail advises that trains have been suspended on the North Shore Line between Gordon and Wynyard in both directions due to a train requiring mechanical repairs near Milsons Point. Lengthy delays can be expected. Flow on delays to Northern and Western Line services from the City will be experienced.

Bus companies are being contacted to operate a replacement service between Gordon and Wynyard until train services can resume. Sydney buses recognising rail tickets between Wynyard & North Sydney in both directions.

CityRail recommends travellers delay their journey or make alternative arrangements.

Police and emergency services are in attendance. At this stage there is no forecast of when the line can be reopened. Further information will be provided as it becomes available.

Well that just sucks....working in north sydney and living on the central coast.

Being peak hour there will be a lot of people on the replacement buses.

I guess there is only one thing you can do in a situation like this....go to the pub until the problem is sorted!! If the problem aint sorted, then going home with a few beers in my belly will make the long journey a little easier!

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
