NSW Transport: Wondabyne training station named cutest by Sydney skirts

Aussies are raving about the quaint station, which overlooks the ocean and is just a 70-minute train ride from Sydney’s CBD.

Wondabyne railway station is on the main northern lines of New South Wales and is without a doubt one of the most inaccessible stations in the country.

The picturesque station overlooks Mullet Creek, which flows close to the Hawkesbury River.

It also overlooks the mountain ranges in the Brisbane Water National Park, and to get an identical view, you have to cross a lot of the Great North Walk.

There are no roads leading to or from the Central Coast and holidaymakers must inform Transport NSW staff if they wish to get off at the station and mark the car as if they had been prepared for a bus stop.

Even then, the Wondabyne platform is only one carriage long, meaning people can only get off the train via the rear exit.

Wondabyne Station was officially opened on 1 May 1889 and is the only station in Australia not accessible by street.

The station was originally called Mullet Creek because it was built near the quarry.

It was renamed Hawkesbury Cabin in 1889 and renamed again in 1891 after a nearby mountain.

The station is especially used by local boaters and bushwhackers due to the lack of an access road.

It is important to note that all passing trains do not stop at the station (especially on providers to Newcastle) and only Gosford and Wyong local trains have an official practice stop at Wondabyne.

Many locals and holidaymakers have been “stunned” by the splendor of the station – judging by the closure of Sydney’s Circular Quay.

“I walked along Wondabyn a few years ago and it was magical,” said one man.

“There’s nothing better than just getting off the train and into nature,” wrote another.

A third revealed: “I don’t think the Mullet Creek Opera House has anything, especially considering the peace and quiet of Wondabin.”

“Despite being really stressed about not being able to stop the train, I really recommend going there just for the view,” said another.
