Industrial action to impact trains over the coming week

Passengers will continue to experience lengthy delays, service cancellations and very large service gaps on the rail network for this afternoon’s peak and tomorrow, Thursday 16 January, due to newly notified and ongoing industrial action.

This will particularly impact the T1 North Shore and Western, T2 Leppington & Inner West, T3 Liverpool & Inner West, T4 Eastern Suburbs & Illawarra, T8 Airport and South, Blue Mountains, South Coast and the Central Coast & Newcastle lines. These impacts will also have a flow-on effect across the network. 

Buses will support train services on some lines, where available and required.

Passengers are urged to delay non-essential travel, leave plenty of additional travel time, and plan ahead. Consider using alternative travel options where possible.

You may need to change services and there may be increased crowding.

Sydney Trains and NSW TrainLink apologise to our passengers for the disruption, and thank commuters for their understanding as staff work to minimise the impacts of this industrial action.
