Actually, I *used* to be one who would pay the full price, both in BNE and SYD. Since I am usually travelling by myself, the rail fare will always be cheaper than a cab fare.

Since they reduced the frequency in BNE to half-hourly, I will still catch the train if I do not have to wait any more than about 10 minutes - any longer and the cabbie gets the fare.

Likewise if it is raining and I am going to BNE INT, due to where they stop the train you HAVE to get wet when leaving the train - no ifs nor buts about it. So again, the cabbie gets the fare.
