Yep. Train canceled. Had to walk and then be stuffed into an overfilled tram. Roughly 40 minute commute became 90 minutes or more.

Oh you are right - but it actually seems like history was repeating! https://www.msn.com/en-au/news/australia/delays-ease-after-peak-hour-equipment-fault-hits-melbourne-trains/ar-AA1vaHLD seems to talk about the actual fault that was yesterday.

I caught the train for my 9-5 in the CBD. I have no idea how I dodged that!
