are u able to get concessions on yearly tickets?, cause for a yearly ticket for meeh costs $2160 , i think concession only is for weekly as i see on the travelpass brochure, which wifout concession for weekly would be $54, as with concession is $27...hmmm, very expensive when u think about it....

Quarterly and Yearly tickets are only available full-fare
u'll have to buy a $27 travelpass everyweek

if you went to the sydney open day they gave out these cityrail pass information things. so you just look at the colour coded cityrail map and then see which travel pass you need. the weekly train travelpasses range from $16- $27 for a concession

You can get monthly passes on concession as far as I know, if that helps. These are just for train though, like the normal weekly tickets. So if your travelling by bus as well then travelpasses are the way to go.

thats what my parents are for!
as i tell them, they chose to conceive me, i didnt ask to be born or any of that, so because of their decision they have to live with the consequences, which includes paying everything i need
but nah, coz of where i live its not really practical to get a job, coz if i get one in newcastle, it is an hour each way to work, which would be ok if i was already at uni and went straight from there, but im not gunna go that far for a casual job, and if i get one here (near where i live) then its an hour back from newcastle, so i prob wouldnt be able to start real early..
