Took the kids on the train to [Perth's Frankston] this afternoon. The oldest kid is the biggest train nerd, and they're shutting down the line at midnight to do a level crossing removal/track elevation thing for a couple of years. Armadale is dead: walking through its shopping center during trading hours, and without a lie, 90% of the stores were closed. It was surreal. Now it is about to lose its train line.
