Railways are to freeways what socialism is to capitalism.


In 1855, a standard-gauge, steam-powered railway from Sydney to Granville commenced. The starting point was the old Redfern Station. The Sydney city rail network was electrified from 1926, with the gradual introduction of the city stations in preparation for the expansion of the network once the harbour bridge came online.
