He sent it to you. 19:24.130 --> 19:26.063 -He didn't. Did he send it to you? -No. 19:26.065 --> 19:29.834 Give it to me. Tony. I've got nothing. I need something. 19:29.836 --> 19:31.502 -I need an announcement. -Yeah, I don't know... 19:31.504 --> 19:33.070 Is this what you're looking for, Rhonda? 19:33.072 --> 19:36.807 -Ah! Thank you. -It was a tripping hazard. 19:36.809 --> 19:39.177 -Rhonda, we need to talk about that. -Oh, yes, we do. 19:39.179 --> 19:40.745 -Just give me one minute. -Nice! 19:40.747 --> 19:42.580 OK, no more YouTube, no more bullshit. 19:42.582 --> 19:44.882 -I want hard facts. -Got it. -Scotty! 19:44.884 --> 19:46.450 -So, where are we at? -Nowhere. 19:46.452 --> 19:48.252 Same place we've been for 50 years. 19:48.254 --> 19:50.121 I don't understand why you're being so negative. 19:50.123 --> 19:52.190 I've been doing this job 20 years, and trust me, 19:52.192 --> 19:54.025 every time we announce a very fast train, 19:54.027 --> 19:55.726 95% of Australians are for it. 19:55.728 --> 19:57.762 -And the other 5%? -Pff! Who are they? 19:57.764 --> 20:00.131 Engineers, economists, experts in transport logistics... 20:00.133 --> 20:01.532 Yeah, the lunatic fringe. 20:01.534 --> 20:03.401 Real people love it. So where are we at? 20:03.403 --> 20:05.102 Well, we're trying to secure the rail corridor 20:05.104 --> 20:06.837 between Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne. 20:06.839 --> 20:08.606 -If you wanna build this... -Build? Whoa, whoa. 20:08.608 --> 20:10.708 I don't wanna build it. I wanna launch it. 20:10.710 --> 20:13.010 I'm thinking an ambassador. Someone to be the face of it. 20:13.012 --> 20:15.179 -Who's that person that really loves trains? -I don't know. 20:15.181 --> 20:17.048 RHONDA: You see them on TV all the time. 20:17.050 --> 20:18.716 -The Fat Controller? -RHONDA: Tim Fischer. 20:18.718 --> 20:21.285 -Does he like trains? -We need to keep a lid on this, Rhonda. 20:21.287 --> 20:24.188 We need to build buzz, generate excitement, get traction. 20:24.190 --> 20:26.557 Yeah, but I can't afford to have the whole office distracted... 20:26.559 --> 20:28.492 -Who drew the Chattanooga Choo-Choo? -Scotty. 20:28.494 --> 20:31.529 Hey, look out there - you seeing the excitement in their eyes 20:31.531 --> 20:34.699 to be part of nation-building for the future? 20:34.701 --> 20:37.235 The future? Most of them won't be there in six months. 20:37.237 --> 20:38.936 They'll be on a very fast plane to Barcelona. 20:38.938 --> 20:43.074 Tony, we've got the will. We've got designs for a logo. 20:43.076 --> 20:44.642 What's stopping us? 20:44.644 --> 20:46.644 As an expert in this field, how would you react 20:46.646 --> 20:48.312 if I said we were thinking of revisiting 20:48.314 --> 20:50.281 the very fast train proposal? 20:50.283 --> 20:51.916 Oh, it's...it's not a prank. 20:51.918 --> 20:54.118 I realise your study concluded it wasn't viable, 20:54.120 --> 20:55.720 but that was many years ago. 20:55.722 --> 20:57.488 OK, two years ago. 20:57.490 --> 21:00.091 But hypothetically, let's say it went at 600km/h. 21:00.093 --> 21:02.727 Yes. No, I understand the laws of physics. 21:02.729 --> 21:04.128 Gradient shouldn't be a problem 21:04.130 --> 21:06.464 if we've just gotta flatten out a few hills. 21:07.766 --> 21:09.333 Yeah, the Blue Mountains. Sure, that's... 21:09.335 --> 21:11.302 That's a little more challenging. 21:11.304 --> 21:13.604 No, I understand, but theoretically, 21:13.606 --> 21:16.140 if we were to tunnel from Melbourne to Canberra... 21:16.142 --> 21:18.142 No, just go with me on this! 21:18.144 --> 21:20.611 OK, but, sorry, why would we need to fence the line? 21:20.613 --> 21:24.148 To prevent collisions, sure. We couldn't just put up signs? 21:24.150 --> 21:25.950 Yeah. I realise cows can't read. 21:25.952 --> 21:27.785 I don't work for a breakfast radio show. 21:27.787 --> 21:29.620 OK, so if we made the fence even higher, 21:29.622 --> 21:31.489 so the kangaroos couldn't jump it? 21:31.491 --> 21:33.924 OK. How would the wombats get in? 21:33.926 --> 21:36.794 Right. And how would you rank our chances of success? 21:36.796 --> 21:38.829 Oh, that's quite high. 21:38.831 --> 21:40.498 Oh, out of 100. 21:40.500 --> 21:43.234 It's actually very difficult to get the train out of Melbourne. 21:43.236 --> 21:45.069 -But after that? -SCOTT: Plain sailing. 21:45.071 --> 21:46.470 Until you hit the Blue Mountains. 21:46.472 --> 21:48.139 Then you've got the western suburbs of Sydney. 21:48.141 --> 21:49.907 They present some serious challenges. 21:49.909 --> 21:51.742 Seven marginal seats. 21:51.744 --> 21:53.711 -I meant engineering challenges. -No, I got it. 21:53.713 --> 21:56.213 Then there's the question of getting the train out of Sydney. 21:56.215 --> 21:58.683 -When do we get to Brisbane? -In about four pages. 21:58.685 --> 22:00.718 We spoke to every expert we could find. 22:00.720 --> 22:03.120 Should I mention the wildlife issues? It's not just kangaroos. 22:03.122 --> 22:04.522 Doesn't matter. 22:04.524 --> 22:06.090 Even with the craziest of assumptions - 22:06.092 --> 22:09.060 petrol at $7 a litre, airfares tripled, 22:09.062 --> 22:10.594 a congestion tax in all the capital cities... 22:10.596 --> 22:12.163 The numbers still don't stack up. 22:12.165 --> 22:13.564 There's no silver bullet. 22:13.566 --> 22:15.633 Actually, that's a really good name. 22:15.635 --> 22:18.169 I'm gonna have to break the news to Jim. 22:19.071 --> 22:21.372 I might need the defibrillator. 22:21.374 --> 22:23.941 Look at the map! Look at the map. 22:23.943 --> 22:25.609 How can you say no to this? 22:25.611 --> 22:27.745 I'm saying that from here to here, a train would work. 22:27.747 --> 22:29.547 From there to there, a train would work. 22:29.549 --> 22:32.049 From there to there. But not from there to there to there. 22:32.051 --> 22:34.118 But look at the connectivity! 22:34.120 --> 22:35.820 It's bringing Australia together. 22:35.822 --> 22:37.254 It's building the nation! 22:37.256 --> 22:40.691 -It's worked there, there. -That's Japan, that's Spain! 22:40.693 --> 22:42.293 And look at it! 22:42.295 --> 22:44.228 That's an artist's impression, Jim. 22:44.230 --> 22:45.796 And that doesn't say anything 22:45.798 --> 22:48.099 about all the problems that we've gotta resolve. 22:48.101 --> 22:49.734 Don't let the problems stand in the way. 22:49.736 --> 22:51.369 'Cause, you know, where every problem is, 22:51.371 --> 22:53.204 there's a solution right around the corner. 22:53.206 --> 22:54.772 Stop. I'm getting an ice-cream headache. 22:54.774 --> 22:56.173 Even if we resolved all the 22:56.175 --> 22:57.575 engineering and environmental problems, 22:57.577 --> 23:00.111 the distances are simply too great. 23:00.113 --> 23:04.548 You've gotta give me something. Look at it - the Silver Emu! 23:04.550 --> 23:06.884 It's so close, I can hear it! 23:06.886 --> 23:09.920 -Choo-choo-choo-choo... -That's a steam train, Jim. 23:09.922 --> 23:11.322 Jim, are you alright? 23:11.324 --> 23:12.823 There must be something we can announce! 23:12.825 --> 23:14.692 Yeah, but we can't announce a feasibility study. 23:14.694 --> 23:16.394 -Are you sure? -Or a scoping study. 23:16.396 --> 23:18.028 -What's that? -The same thing. 23:18.030 --> 23:19.897 Only thicker, with graphs and diagrams. 23:19.899 --> 23:22.333 -That sounds good! -It'll only tell us what we already know. 23:22.335 --> 23:23.968 A very fast train simply won't work. 23:23.970 --> 23:26.470 We won't know that until the report's finished. 23:26.472 --> 23:28.239 -We know that now. -Not officially. 23:28.241 --> 23:29.673 And they don't know that we know. 23:29.675 --> 23:31.442 -Who's 'they'? -The nay-sayers! 23:31.444 --> 23:33.611 But they know we know they know we know. 23:33.613 --> 23:35.746 What?! Can we just move this thing forward? 23:35.748 --> 23:39.316 (MUTTERS) For 15 months, if you know what I mean. 23:39.318 --> 23:41.051 If you opened your mouth, I might. 23:41.053 --> 23:43.854 -Until the election. -Oh. Sorry. 23:43.856 --> 23:46.090 Oh. 23:47.993 --> 23:50.027 TONY: I get it. 23:51.129 --> 23:52.696 -Alright. -Yes! 23:52.698 --> 23:55.332 -I haven't said anything yet. -Just being supportive. 23:55.334 --> 23:58.569 We announce that we're gonna set up...an authority. 23:58.571 --> 24:00.137 An authority! 24:00.139 --> 24:01.972 A Federal High-Speed Rail Authority. 24:01.974 --> 24:05.209 -The FHSR. -The FHSR! What do they do? 24:05.211 --> 24:07.745 Well, what we're doing, but over a longer time frame. 24:07.747 --> 24:09.713 -And they'll be within your... -No, within yours. 24:09.715 --> 24:12.283 I can supply some staff. They won't last long. 24:12.285 --> 24:13.684 But it'll be a stand-alone authority. 24:13.686 --> 24:16.287 -And they do a TARGETED study. -Brilliant. 24:16.289 --> 24:19.457 They have to look at acquiring the pieces of land 24:19.459 --> 24:21.926 that will "secure the rail corridor". 24:21.928 --> 24:25.863 But over a long time frame so it's virtually meaningless. 24:25.865 --> 24:28.232 I need to make some calls. 24:28.234 --> 24:30.434 -Can I borrow... -Yep. 24:30.436 --> 24:32.336 -And your office. -Sure. 24:32.338 --> 24:35.773 -Wow.
