List of Sydney railway stations

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of Sydney railway stations. It includes all currently operating railway stations on the railway network based in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. The network and its stations are currently operated by CityRail, the commuter division of the Government-owned Rail Corporation New South Wales (Railcorp).[1] The stations of the Metro Light Rail network, which interchanges with the CityRail network at Central Railway Station, are also included.

The network extends for over 2,060 km,[2] reaching as far as Newcastle, Dungog and Scone to the north, over the Blue Mountains west to the city of Lithgow, south to Bomaderry-Nowra, and southwest to Goulburn. The network has a total of 301 stations. In a city of more than 4 million people[3], the network provides around 270 million passengers journeys a year.[4]

For a list of permanently closed stations on the CityRail network, see List of closed Sydney railway stations. For a list of stations under construction, planning or consideration, see List of proposed Sydney railway stations.
