Under 4 hours. It's 3 hours by car. It's criminal that a rail upgrade now can't manage to beat cars

Some work there seems well overdue, the train takes a lot longer than the bus trip let alone compared to driving yourself. Plenty of talk about high speed rail lines in the far future but even just ok speed rail would attract more people. Be nice if they had a more convenient rail terminus than Kingston too but I can't see that changing anytime soon given how expensive it would be to extend the line closer to the city.
2 all stop trips a day. A lot of the trip time is spent at stations. More trips and express like services? Booking a seat is an issue as most seats seem to be booked by people closer to Sydney so more services are needed.
And add cheap, easy to buy tickets, integrate with opal or myway or something simple. And add a station in a more accessible Canberra location. And do more than 2 trips a day....
Pipe dream.
