About this page

Departures for Sydney Central come from Timetable, live positions and delays: Transport for NSW, CC BY 4.0. The board carries the delay reported by the operator, so a train marked on time was on time at the last reporting point — not necessarily for the rest of its run. The app shows the same trains moving on a live map, which is the part a static page cannot do.

The page itself is rebuilt roughly every half hour; open it again for a fresh board rather than relying on a tab left open since morning.

Questions people ask

How do I check whether a train from Sydney Central is delayed?

Open the board above — the status column shows the delay in minutes next to each departure. For a train that has already left, or for one departing later today, the live map in the Trainradar24 app follows the whole run.

Which platform does my train leave from?

The platform column shows it whenever the operator publishes that information. A dash means the platform has not been assigned yet; it usually appears a few minutes before departure, and the screens at Sydney Central remain the final word.

How far ahead does the board go?

It lists the next departures from the moment the page was built, not a full day's timetable. For a train leaving tomorrow, use the search in the app.

Where does the data come from?

From Timetable, live positions and delays: Transport for NSW, CC BY 4.0. We do not resell or alter it — we present it next to the live positions we collect ourselves.
