Victoria’s regional train network has been labelled “archaic” following a recent crowd crush.

A track fault at Southern Cross sent parts of the network into meltdown late on Thursday, resulting in overcrowding on platforms.

“What happened (on Thursday) was incredibly dangerous – it was a crush of thousands of people,” Jacqui Felgate said on 3AW Drive.
