Yet every evening the good citizens of Granville are being delayed by up to 2 or even 3 minutes on their trips home from work. But enough to warrant a station at which almost all trains heading to Granville see fit to stop? Probably some people get trains to work and back. Not a soul! Yet it has it's own train station.Īnd yes, it is an industrial area. No one, according to the official statistics, actually lives there. How little you know! The residential population of Clyde is zero. What has this station got to do with your calls to bomb the place into oblivion then occupy it indefinitely with a large-scale multinational ground force? No matter, you say, there must be heaps of people living in Clyde who depend on the station. Yet it remains a fact that Clyde is no longer a junction to anywhere! Now, we can all agree that fact is symbolic of the criminal neglect of Sydney's public transport infrastructure by successive state governments. Such an observation merely displays your ignorance! The Carlingford line closed in January 2020. Yes, you say, it serves as a junction for the Western and Inner West train lines with the Carlingford line, taking commuters northward through Rosehill all the way to Calingford itself. Allow me to educate you.Ĭlyde is a suburb with it's own train station. Some of us actually have to live with the consequences of Clyde. Such voices should check their privilege and create space for those of us who do! They do not have the lived experience of being Clyde's neighbour. Those who ask such questions do not live in Granville, next door to Clyde. Runaway climate change, war crimes from Ukraine to Yemen, the despairing state of the Western Sydney Wanderers. ![]() Some may ask: why? Surely whatever Clyde has done there's more important issues. We must act or regret our inaction for eternity. In regards to that disgraceful suburb in the Greater Western Sydney region, 21 kilometres west of the Sydney CBD, the time for talking is past. ![]() Only so many insults to decency and humanity that those guided by such values can be expected to tolerate before they stand up and declare: ENOUGH! There's only so much provocation the civilised world can stand.
