Rail Breakdowns Due To Insufficient Maintenance

摘要

A review of NSW government-owned train operator RailCorp by the Boston Consulting Group found that maintenance is "three times below" that of similar railways.rnTrain doors are ten times less reliable than those on Hong Kong's MTR trains, the review said. Braking systems are three times less reliable. Door and brake failures account for 40% of all "passenger delay minutes".rnAccording to the RailCorp Customer Service Improvement Program review, improving maintenance could decrease breakdowns by up to 50%.
