[edit] Station navigation box

This is a nested template. Include only the lines that the station is situated on. (eg. Wolli Creek would have only the South Coast Line, the Illawarra Line and the Airport and East Hills line in its template.)

Begin the table with {{CityRailSydney/Navigation begin}}.

Add {{CityRailSydney/Navigation|name=X Line}} for suburban lines.
What follows name is the variable for that specific line (the word "line" is not included.
For intercity and regional lines, use {{CityRailNSW/Navigation|name=Y Line}}.

End with {{CityRailSydney/Navigation end}}.

This should go at the bottom of a page (apart from the Line Navigation template below).
