Shepparton rail line

 Annabelle CLEELAND (Euroa) (12:12): Locals in Seymour and Shepparton were promised a V/Line train signalling upgrade would be finished by last month. The community fear the deadline has blown out again, and communities are left frustrated and in the dark. The upgrades are critical for safety, reliability and confidence in our rail network. People plan their lives around these services. They deserve honesty, not shifting timelines and excuses. Can the minister for transport confirm that the V/Line trains will resume, as my community is sick and tired of bus replacements? They want a clear date, accountability, delivery and not another delay, not another bus.
