Description
Train services remain at a standstill for parts of Australia, after that nationwide Telstra outage.
Limited buses will replace peak-hour regional services in Victoria, as well as trains on the Southern Highlands and Hunter lines in New South Wales.
More than 300 Triple Zero calls failed because of the blackout, with the telco now confirming a secondary issue is impacting more emergency calls.
Nine Newspapers is reporting a software bug could be to blame for the outage, as Telstra now faces potential penalties in the tens of millions of dollars. | *Subscribe and 🔔: http://9Soci.al/KM6e50GjSK9*
