History of Gardiners Creek Trail suspended section under Citylink

What is the history of this section of Gardiners Creek Trail underneath the Citylink viaduct near Kooyong? I think it's pretty cool visually but a bit dark and grimy, it's a bit like the Dixon Veloway beta version. Was it originally included when Citylink was built or was it added later? Would like to find out more about it, if anyone knows any resources (either physical or digital) let me know (thinking maybe like library local history sections or Citylink designs as I can't find much online)!

New timetables are up, also what does this mean??

New timetables for the 23 August timetable change are now up on the Transport Victoria and V/Line websites.

Of note (apart from all the other advertised changes), Craigieburn shoulder peak is 10 min frequency until about 10:30am at the city (both directions) and from 2:30pm in the afternoon (outbound).

More info here: https://transport.vic.gov.au/news-and-resources/projects/metro-tunnel/more-ways-to-move (You have to go to the individual line pages for the timetables)

But curiously it says this for the Alamein Line. I can't find any extra services or Camberwell shuttles being extended to Flinders Street in the timetable, and I don't think any of the city services are 3 cars any more, so what does it mean???

The Cyprus/Melbourne sign from the other week unlocked a 4th language

Follow up on this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/geoguessr/comments/1ulfiax/went_cyrpus_on_melbourne_in_no_move_based_on_this/

I went to go visit this sign in person to get a photo today, to find that it had been replaced with a new sign. :( But the new sign is now even more confusing for Geoguessr players as it also has Vietnamese...although maybe that makes it easier as I don't think you would go Cyprus with that and the English is more prominent. (Luckily there was also another copy of the old sign just around the corner that I could get a photo of (2nd image))

Notice anything unusual about this X'Trap T carriage (1318T)?

Answer: the two non-four seaters are usually located closest to the middle door and facing out, so the carriage is symmetrical (second picture is a usual Xtrap), but for some reason 1318T has one half as usual and the other half with them at the far end of the carriage facing in. Anyone know why?? The overhead handholds are still aligned to the typical layout, so I don't know how but maybe they just made a mistake installing them?
