A personal nerdy project to document the look and feel of every station on Sydney Trains, Intercity, Metro & Ferries. A look at urban environments in and around Sydney. Also other transit & urban things. Just some nerd.

No idea! They tunnelled under fields too

Shorter platforms than other lines but still with screen doors. Lifts & single pair of escalators to each platform. Looks pretty nice, the standard we'd expect from Metro - if there was anything here! There's not even a road.

Community Open day at LUDDENHAM Station on the new WSI Line. Most obvious impression is this is the middle of absolutely nowhere and there's nothing here at all. Two platforms on a big viaduct in a cool looking shed-like structure. (1/2)

Even on the renders this looks like the saddest goddamn place, look at old mate here contemplating what she did to deserve this

A render showing a woman sitting by herself, evidently in thought, on bland concrete steps in full sunlight with nearly all the seating just out of the shade of a tree

Yeah it's just a shockingly bad effort

@sydneystations.bsky.socialOct 10, 2026, 3:54 AM

Council already owns all the buildings, having slowly been purchasing them since the 80s. I'd imagine much of the cost is just from the demolition and filling/walling in all the basements.

@sydneystations.bsky.socialOct 10, 2026, 3:44 AM

All the buildings to be cleared already have basements that could be repurposed - including what is currently a food court. I reckon this dead corner in the square is going to be an area to avoid, especially at night. At least put something there! There's some bold visions here, but the execution?

The trees in the render are easily four stories tall, that's pretty big

@sydneystations.bsky.socialOct 9, 2026, 7:15 AM

We have so many better examples. Parramatta Sq is better!

@sydneystations.bsky.socialOct 9, 2026, 5:44 AM

Trees take ages to grow, the building on George St is heritage listed, so the view from QVB is just a big blank wall? At street level it'll be gross along there. Could have an underground arcade connecting the station from the east. Currently it's a narrow staircase and a fair walk to the one lift.

Now the plans for Town Hall Sq are out, I think it should be sent back to the drawing board. All underground spaces filled/closed. Wollies exit to the station walled off. No retail, food/bev. Not even toilets. Big blank walls facing north. Missed opportunity to improve station accessibility too.

📢 Because it is such a great place to live, those who enjoy it already are desperately trying to find ways for others not to.

@sydneystations.bsky.socialOct 3, 2026, 10:43 AM

Yeah it's just a handful of signs on the platforms that say "suburban"

@sydneystations.bsky.socialOct 3, 2026, 10:09 AM

Yeah it'd be Kingsford Smith if anything. Transport NSW has been replacing the airport icons on road signs across Sydney with SYD ✈️. I'm surprised (disappointed) they're not renaming the stations in a similar way.

@sydneystations.bsky.socialOct 3, 2026, 9:56 AM

Yeah. It might have been a problem in the 90s but I don't know anyone who calls the airport "Mascot" today

@sydneystations.bsky.socialOct 3, 2026, 9:51 AM

New-ish exit at Mascot

@sydneystations.bsky.socialOct 3, 2026, 9:50 AM

"Suburban" yet it's all high density apartments, shops, office blocks and even high density multi-storey light-industry complexes
