freight services

Sydney, the largest city in Australia, has an extensive network of passenger and freight railways. The passenger network is a hybrid metro-suburban railway with a central underground core running at metro style frequencies, which branches out into a suburban commuter type network. The system also carries freight, and there is a separate network of freight lines, some of which are disused. Roland International Freight Services.

Passenger service

Passenger service is operated in Sydney by RailCorp under the Cityrail brand. Suburban services operates along the portions of the mainlines that travel out of Sydney to the north, west, south and southwest, and also along several dedicated suburban lines. All of these lines have been progressively electrified with overhead 1500v DC from 1926. Most suburban services operate through the central Sydney underground network via either the City Circle (a horsehoe shaped line), the Eastern Suburbs underground line, or tracks that pass over the Harbour Bridge. There are long term plans for a new underground line passing beneath Pitt Street to a new harbour crossing (known as MetroPitt), and a longstanding concept for a new underground line that will pass down the western side of the central business district (known as MetroWest).
