have all been affected by wet weather and flooding on Friday, which Transport NSW said at 8:30am was “ongoing until further notice”. Although the rain had finally stopped, a number of morning services were cancelled due to flooding on tracks and many others across the network have been delayed. “The reason for the delay is congestion towards Central caused by flooding on the tracks at Central,” Transport NSW tweeted. “Urgent” track repairs following the wild weather are also underway on a number of lines, adding to delays. To make things worse, Transport NSW also reported a data outage this morning that may be affecting schedule times. But it assured commuters that, contrary to popular belief, the trains were in fact running. “There is currently a real-time data outage affecting some transport apps. Trains are still running,” . So far this morning we thankfully haven’t seen anything like the chaotic scenes of last night, when commuters were delayed by up to six hours during the heavy rainfall. This came the same day Sydney cracked its annual rainfall record to confirm 2022 as the city’s . It’s only October — Sydney still has a long soggy summer ahead.
