Probably the worst public transport operator in the western world. Runs Melbourne's entire train system and is forever paying compensation to passengers for poor performance and fines to the Victorian Government, which are then used by bureaucrats to buy expensive take away coffee and herbal and scented teas. Connex is incapable of running a decent train system. Communters should not have to put up with the delays caused by connex. Get the fuck back to France, you bastards!!!
Connex Announcer: The 6.17 Lilydale will not run today.
Passengers: WHAT THE FUCK??? WE WANT TO GET HOME!!!!!!

An arrogant French company which runs Melbourne's train networks. Their service is characterised by and known for its late and cancelled trains; the dissatisfaction experienced among customers; and its ticket inspectors, roving round in packs, who intimidate and bully customers and whose behaviour resembles that of aggressive apes. The company receives a great many complaints each year for their poor results and their ticket inspectors, and they have proven an embarrassment for the government, who are often blamed for privatising the public transport sector.
The 2.32 Epping will not run today. Connex apologises for any inconvenience caused. Have a wonderful day - our executives already are.

Former franchise holders of South Eastern railways who were hilariously inept...unless you happened to live in their catchment area and needed to catch a frigging train at some point.
Mercifully, they lost their license and trains started to run at (vaguely) the right time. However, they got the bus franchise in the same area, so sales of umbrellas went up 650% overnight.

1.) "Where's my fucking train? It should've been here twenty five minutes ago..."
2.) "Where's my fucking bus? It should've been here twenty five minutes ago..."

John is Connex again! Can't he ever be on time?
I'm already running like Connex, can't you do it yourself?
