The then ferry pilot would sometimes turn back around if I was late to get me on instead of having to wait another 20 mins. Then there was the time we ran out of gas in the middle of the shipping lane....

I would suggest a similar race between somewhere on the Glen Waverley Line to somewhere on the Dandenong line (Maybe Glen Waverley to Clayton stations) would not be so close!
