After the 'local' train arrived in the back platform at Cheltenham, they experienced a major signal and point failure. I wait on my Frankston bound train, as the signalman hand winds the points over.
Up trains are stretched all the way back to Mordialloc.

I was the first train to depart after a 40 minute delay. Not a good morning so far, and the temperature will reach 44c by the afternoon, causing hundreds of cancellations.
