 Railway Electrification in Melbourne
We are required on the Melbourne suburban lines to deal with a very large inwards traffic in the morning and a similar outwards traffic in the evening.
As the Melbourne suburban lines were built originally for and are still operated by steam locomotives, we are chiefly concerned with the electric railways in the second group.
The value of the steam locomotives and coaches relieved from the St. Kilda and Port Melbourne lines (having due regard to their condition and their suitability for service on other lines) would be a credit to the cost of the electrification of these lines, and the interest charges be reduced accordingly.

Melbourne: Where the only PT to 2/3rds of the population runs roughly hourly 7am-6pm M-F plus Saturday Mornings, and expanding the hourly service to run 7 days a week in a few years time is supposed to be a major improvement worthy of praise.
If Melbourne's bus services were to be improved to something like Smartbus standards, then funding would have to increase, but a better deal i.e.
Trams had poor suspensions and fewer seats, and some train carriages had only two doors, slowing boarding and alighting.
