30 More stations shut, RailCorp staff cuts leave commuters without toilets

Stations shut as RailCorp staff cuts leave commuters without toilets
This year RailCorp have been running a review of train stations that has seen a massive cut back in the number of staff, yet the number of people using public transport continues to rise.
