The boondoggle (Inland Rail) is dead, long live the boondoggle (Snowy 2.0)! These sort of articles really should name as many of the firms and individuals involved in the initial cost benefit analysis as possible. On the cost side, $15bn turned out to be $30bn which turned out to be $45bn. And on the benefit side, 50% of the cargo was forecast to be coal right into the 2040s. #auspol https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-05-05/albanese-government-slashes-funding-inland-rail-project/106644902
