Some pics I took whist working over there during this week and last. The Adelaide suburban train network is completely run by diesel units, and is still using wooden sleepers. Very unique for a first world city. As most suburban stations, if not all are unstaffed, ticket vending machines are provided in every car. Interestingly the late night services still had to be operated by three staff (driver, PSA a cross between conductor and inspector, and a private security guard) even though I was the sole passenger from end to end and train was just one car.
