RailCorp has confirmed that some of its workstations had been infected with the Conficker virus, although it insisted that the virus had caused no operational impact.
NSW Premier Nathan Rees has announced a data feed for RailCorp information, putting an end to the saga that had led to a developer being threatened with legal action for his use of train times in an iPhone application.
