Parramatta Railway station has a story to tell
F
EW commuters sipping on their morning coffee and waiting for a train would realise they are standing on one of the most historic railway sites in Australia. Parramatta railway station is a heritage-listed railway station located on the Main Western line and it was once the gateway to inland NSW when monster steam locomotives ruled the rails. In the modern era, Parramatta’s 1859
station building has now become one of the most if not the most important NSW railway heritage station due to its age and status. Parramatta station is one of Sydney's oldest and the colonial first line connected Sydney and Parramatta near Granville and opened in 1855. It was extended to the current Parramatta station four years later. More: page 17.
