| 1230788 | 2011-09-13 23:16:00 | Hmmm, even if you put Aucklands rail system in the Waste Management category, they're still not doing a very good job :D (<--- lame yellow smiley, bring back the Green Grin) | Iantech (16386) | ||

| 1230790 | 2011-09-13 23:23:00 | Read all about it here (en.wikipedia.org). I would prefer it to be called something like 'Auckland Rail' myself. Much the same happened down here with our Southland Television channel. Some bright spark decided to change the name to 'Cue Television' which I think is pretty meaningless. |

| 1230793 | 2011-09-14 06:55:00 | They operate Bayside Bus services in Brisbane - They have just had quite a bit of Industrial strife of late. They also operate Bus services in NSW, in the greater Sydney area, and also a waste management division throughout Australia. At least you have not got the clowns who operate Victorian Metro Rail Services. | KenESmith (6287) | ||
