I enjoy taking the #MetroTunnel to speed up my commute home but I still haven't adjusted to the increased length of time being in a tunnel compared to a typical City Loop is slightly unnerving. Always a relief to get out from the tunnel near Hawksburn. #Naarm #Melbourne

One new issue with State Library / Melbourne Central that I have noticed since the Metro Tunnel opened has to do with interchanging.

When coming out of State Library Station there are no screens to tell you the next train departures from platforms at Melbourne Central. The only bank of screens on the way faces perpendicular to the path of travel.

Installing a new bank of screens facing the top of the escalators as you come up from State Library would be a massive help. Especially when wait times for trains can regularly be 30+ minutes.

Just when you thought the Cranbourne/Pakenham lines would never stop at South Yarra ever again!

Meanwhile at Caulfield they're going to remove the Myki gates, replacing them with standalone readers. Makes sense - the gates take up a lot of valuable platform space, and there are a lot more people changing trains here since the #Melbourne #MetroTunnel opened. https://transport.vic.gov.au/disruptions/disruptions-information/article/caulfield-station-temporary-platform-access-changes-from-sunday-22-february-to-thursday-12-march-2026

Good to see them continuing to improve the signage in the #Melbourne #MetroTunnel - this signage previously pointed you down towards to escalators that are always running up. They've now blanked it out (well almost). Good wayfinding is important.

Unless I’m much mistaken the Cranbourne/Pakenham clock at Flinders Street is still showing train times even though they’ve moved to Town Hall Station, down the street. (Correct TH platform number too.) #Melbourne #MetroTunnel
