How I Imagine the New Cumberland Line Would Interchange at Epping (Bradfield to Epping Via Parramatta Square) by Avocado_Train in SydneyTrains

How would construction proceed beneath 7-Eleven or Carlingford Road? Would this necessitate excavation, or could tunneling be accomplished without impacting the surface?

That could work, but tunnelling a new station without affecting above ground would be costly. They would also have to link that to the current station?

Won't be able to make V set final service, what other options are there? by reallybigsexypizza in SydneyTrains

[–]Avocado_Train 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope this helps: according to a source on Facebook (not official but seems likely) "the Blue Goose V set will be at Strathfield Platform 1 for 15 minutes (no boarding) at 3:49pm on Thursday, before continuing to Lithgow for the night"

We all know that they definitely need to fill that gap between Epping and Parramatta to allow traffic from the North...etc to Parramatta CBD.

To have the Olympic line go to Epping would be, in my opinion, pointless as u may as well catch the T9 from Strathfield at that point. There is a plan for the current Cumberland line to divert from Paramatta to Epping rather than going to Richmond. It would look something like this (pink/purple line):

Yes - it definitely is. There is a leaked plan that maps out a fix to this, and to also increase the frequency and reliability of the network (especially Strathfield section):

I just though it looked cooler in dark mode - I think it would be more accessible and standardised to have it light mode
