i would like to think that in future there will be a metronet 2 in which a new perth underground is built to fully accommodate the Mandurah, Joondalup, midland, Fremantle and Morley-Ellenbrook lines
with the current pert station then serving the Armadale, Airport, thornlie lines

Do Adelaide next! It's Tram system is one of the biggest in the world!

It’s awesome that you’re doing my states capital and yes the free transit zone is also awesome, we’ve also got buses within the ftz called cat buses or central area transit buses that do various routes within the ftz that you can just get on and off without any kind of bus pass or ticket which is really great.

The C series in my opinion is not a replacment for the A series, as it wll not be used on the lines that are served by the A series. The actual replacment is the B series, which the C series will operate on the Joondalup and Mandurah Line. They need to either add extra cars to some B series, or upgrade the platforms to 6 car along the Midland, Armadale/Thornlie and Fremantle lines.

I love Perth. Best city in Australia by a mile!

The only difficulty I find is the low frequency and unreliability of buses through the suburbs to take you to the stations. When I visit Perth I still rely on getting lifts to the train stations because the bus times can be once per hour or not turn up, They also stop running at like 5pm where my parents live which is super inconvenient if you want to head into central for dinner/drinks

Australian cities have our problems with North American-influences in our city design, but one thing we did right was keep our UK/European-style public transport systems. Most Australian cities have above average commuter rail services and a decent bus network.

Lived in Canning Vale in 2007 after living in London, used to take the Madurah Line from Murdoch to the CBD for work, it was a decent railway back then, although everyone I knew drove so had never used it, understandable as there's huuuuge gaps between the lines that would just be a pain for every day life, even with buses. Mandurah line was sweet though as you got this sick view of Swan River either side of you before you got into town (having lived in London, I have to call Perth a town instead of a city )

I’m now much more grateful i live here, thank you RM

Perth's PT is very surprising in a good way. It is really good for such a small city.

I still dont get why you have called cities with 1-1.5 million people "big cities" but perth is a small one?
