Yes, but to achieve it, all four tracks are completely reserved. They are fed by more than one line each (they all split further out) and every disruption will immediately cause a backlog piling up.
Not sure what you mean here. All 4 loops are already completely used. No point having a loop unused. There are 6 tracks between Flinders Street and Spencer Street stations, they will be all used too (and I think already are used). It is a lot better then the current situation - e.g. Frankston and Dandenong trains share the one loop. Over the last years working where I work now I cannot remember _one_ time
during peak hours when I took a train according to a timetable and it proceeded smoothly.
I hope you complained on that day? :-) That should never happen.... -- Brian May <brian@microcomaustralia.com.au>
