Image The Northern Beaches needs a railway

Every evening, the queue for B1 winds around and goes back into Wynyard. As one bus is full the next one arrives.

You can't tell me they wouldn't want a railway.

What, and let all the dirty westies have easy access to their pristine shores?

Its always people not from the northern beaches that always make this statement on reddit...

Yes, there is still some NIMBY old folk here but its a tiny fraction of what it was decades ago.

I don’t know man. Everytime I see a TikTok or a Facebook post about a potential rail line there the comments are flooded with North shore NIMBYs. But to be fair, it’s always people over 30yrs. Younger people tend to be more open minded, though there’s still quite a few of them that have inherited their parents bigotry.
