I think she is in training as a new SA.  It is good, because now the late
running passengers have someone else to abuse when they miss their train other
than the guard. :-)
On another note, on these last few days, I have noticed that the SPIes have not
been working anywhere.  This includes Sutherland, Hurstville, Sydenham, Hornsby
and Campbelltown.  Don't know about Parramatta or Blacktown as I haven't been
there this week.  Anyone know why they all failed suddenly?
