The timetable is extracted from the GTFS dataset for a typical Monday in Oct 2017 running from 7:00 - 11:00am. There is a nice mix of suburban services, expresses for the West and North and the Bankstown and Olympic Park shuttles included. In addition there are a few ‘One-offs’ and Empty Train moves in the timetable to keep the signaller on their toes.
