NSW TrainLink

This article needs to be updated. The reason given is: Since July 2024, Sydney Trains has apparently taken over the operations of intercity non-booked/Opal services from NSW TrainLink - this still requires a reliable source confirming that this has indeed occurred; a proposal published before 1 July is not sufficient evidence to satisfy Wikipedia guidelines on WP:RS and WP:OR. Please help update this article to reflect recent events or newly available information. (July 2024)

NSW TrainLink is a train and coach operator in Australia, providing services throughout New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory, along with limited interstate services into Victoria, Queensland and South Australia. Its primary intercity and regional services are spread throughout five major rail lines, operating out of Sydney's Central railway station.

NSW TrainLink was formed on 1 July 2013 when RailCorp was restructured and CountryLink was merged with the intercity services of CityRail.

Between July 2013 and June 2024, NSW TrainLink was also responsible for the operation of intercity services. By this time, a process had been underway for their transfer to Sydney Trains. Intercity services were proposed to be transferred to Sydney Trains on 1 July 2024, making NSW TrainLink a regional-only transport provider.
