One tourist called it ‘the tram that never comes’. Will new penalties make a popular Melbourne attraction run on time? (www.theguardian.com)

I tried to get on the 35 recently while in Melbourne. Right from the start of the loop at Waterfront City. It didn't show for 3 scheduled departures. I phone the information number to ask if it was running, "yes, it will be there in 5 minutes"... "are you sure, its not been here the last two scheduled times?".." yes absolutely it will be there". Surprise, it didn't show.

I don't mind things not running, life happens... but don't feed bad info to visitors.
