Classical Music at Emu Plains Stn
R.F.Horgan
music being played over the PA. THe SM tried this as and experiment and much
to his delight it work in driving away the riff raff from loitering on the
platfrom.
Apparently the local kids were using this station as their local haunt ....
but not anymore. Its a pity that this idea has NOT bee tried at more
stations, particularly on the Bankstown Line

Is it my imagination, or is every thread shanghaied by the Mexicans or banana
benders.

I don't know about this being the SM's experiment - it was trialled
successfully at about 20 stations last year (I think some were Emu Plains,
Penrith, Blacktown, Central to name a few). "Technical difficulties"
prevented its immediate introduction (something about copyright?).

I've not heard other passenger comment on the matter, it would be interesting
to know what they think.
