Why it is so convenient?
Two train lines to the city
Less than 5 minutes wait till you can get a train
10 to 15 minutes to the city
Walking distance to the station
If you live in Wolli Creek and work in the city, you should know how convenient it is to take trains from Wolli Creek to the city, no matter your office is close to Central, Town Hall, Wynyard or any other city circle stations because Wolli Creek railway station is located at the junction of the Airport and Illawarra lines so in the morning you only need to wait 5 minutes at most as both of the two lines can lead you to the city.
If you don’t bother to change trains, you can always take the Airport line from platform 1. Starting from Wolli Creek station, the train will stop at International Airport, Domestic Airport, Mascot, Green Square, Central, (Sydenham, Redfern – only certain trains between 7:25am to 8:50am, Monday to Friday), Museum, St James, Circular Quay, Wynyard, and Town Hall stations. It normally takes about 16 minutes to the Central station and 30 minutes to Town Hall station. Please note: if you go to International Airport, Domestic Airport, you need to pay $10 more on top of your normal train ticket price.
I normally take the Eastern Suburbs & Illawarra Line or the South Coast Line from platform 3. Trains normally stop at Redfern, Central, Town Hall, and Martin Place stations. Certain trains stop at Tempe and/or Sydenham. I will then change train at Town Hall to city circles from platform 4 by walking straight to platform 6. The normal waiting time is less than 5 minutes.
The train station is very close to the residential area. No matter where you live in Wolli Creek you should be able to walk to the station in less than 10 minutes.
I will finish this post using a testimonial I found on Google review:
