a guy jumped in front of the train entering edgecliff station (bound for bondi). He "stuck" to the front for a bit, then

slid down & underneath.. train stopped after 2 carriages had entered the platform.

the surprise was how much people just sorta stood around. Train driver gets on the phone. People on the train

just sat there (they couldn't get off I guess without a decision on the doors). Train didn't back up. Station staff took

ages to come down. Two women just sat looking traumatized. No sign of cops or ambulances 15+ minutes. I didn't

particularly feel like hanging around to see what was left, so headed to the buses.

I guess the lesson is that if you want to end things this way, don't expect medical attention for a good half an hour

if it doesn't fully work out..

i could be wrong. but i doubt anyone who jumps infront of a train would be very interested in seeking medical attention. kinda goes against the whole "killing yourself" thing lol

on another note, i had the same thing happen at bondi station less then 2 yrs back. sum bloke sitting casually on d bench waiting for the train then as the train approached the station, he launched himself infront of it

Oh my gosh thats messed up...

A friend works for the railways dealing with the report for exactly this and you would be amazed at how often this happens really. Almost on a daily basis just around Sydney, i seen a guy jump of the overwalk bridge at Lidcombe station directly into the path of an oncoming train about 6 months ago.

I feel sorry for the ppl who have to see that sort of thing :(

Whilst doing some work transfer for EDI rail I heard a ton of stories like that, they told me its not uncommon people waiting on a bend then launch themselves out in front of the them.

Had to clean some kangaroo off the front and underneath of a few Loco's during my 10 weeks there. Big chunks of bloody fur everywhere on the axles.

pretty messed up indeed.

similar thing happened prob 4 years ago at merrylands train station, the idiot tried to cross the tracks by jumping down from the platforms and yeah, got owned. serves him right for trying to cross. cops & ambo's came in prob 10minutes, trains were terminated and had to get a cab/bus/lift home

Man that's crazy... I even had a dream I died last night, that was bad enough!

lol that bullshiet dude......

apparently i read up that in dreams...an individual actually never dies......

and i kinda agree...ive dreamed of dying...EXPERIENCES....but at the end of it.......you just either wake up or just some how get out of the situation.

anyhow dude......sorry to hear......that wouldve been a big mess......

ive seen a Suicide in Newtown Railway Station... an Emo or Gothic guy hung himself on the frames above the railway lines..... not a good site at all....

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
