Telstra, a national phone company in Australia, had an "outage" that affected parts of New South Wales, so the trains could not run. Apparently, train drivers need to talk to each other; luckily, bus drivers don't, so they used buses instead.
My question is: what did train drivers do for hundreds of years before they had mobile phones? Anyone? And what other things can they ruin for us? I am sure the list is endless. I didn't think the trains would stop.
