Disastrous delay

Another disastrous delay made by Cityrail has left Central Coast commuters angry and fed up.

The Wednesday 3:00pm Central to Gosford rail service was unexpectedly interrupted by a screaming woman who was drinking and neglecting her two toddlers in a pram.

Passengers were disgusted by her drunk and disorderly behaviour after her pram was jolted in between the inter-connecting carriage doors.

Passengers told the woman to stop yelling and cursing, while another female passenger took matters further.

The passenger approached the train guard located at the rear carriage and after reporting the outspoken woman who was drinking and screaming at onlookers, no efforts were offered by the guard.

"Cityrail has failed to take responsibility for the safety of passengers. The small children could have been harmed and other passengers abused by their mother," said an onlooker.

The train was delayed at Cowan station for several minutes while passengers watched the woman scream at the train and remove her jammed pram.
