Dear Sydney Trains,

Trains to COMO are timetabled every 20 minutes TO stop at COMO during the evening peak from TOWN HALL. These services are the first to be cancelled if there are any delays on T4 services instead starting at CENTRAL, which is occurring at an increasing frequency and at the expense of COMO commuters who continue to pay full fare for a reduced level of service

PLEASE PROVIDE THE NUMBER OF SERVICES CANCELLED FROM TOWN HALL TO COMO IN 2018 FOR THE EVENING WEEKDAY PEAK AS A NUMBER, AND AS A PERCENTAGE OF SERVICES OPERATED DURING THIS PERIOD.

Yours faithfully,
Neil Woodbridge

Como 2226
