Buried within the upcoming Sydney Trains timetable changes is the re-introduction of Liverpool to City via Regents Park services (removed in 2013) as part of the new Inner West Line.
This is a major win for residents of Berala, Regents Park, Sefton, Chester Hill, Leightonfield, Villawood, and Carramar, who were facing the removal of all trains to Central because of the Sydney Metro Southwest.
After 11 years of community campaigning, we are grateful for the NSW government decision to override Transport for NSW planning to isolate the west of Bankstown.
Now only Birrong and Yagoona will be without a train to Central, but we are grateful that both stations are continuing to be serviced by trains once Sydney Metro opens at Bankstown.

Letter to the Editor, Sydney Morning Herald (17 September 2024)
