Rydal Railway Station - Rydal, NSW - Train Stations/Depots on Waymarking.com

The station building has been converted to short term tourism accommodation however you can still catch the XPT (very fast train) from here & be put down as well. You need to purchase your tickets on-line & then the train will stop here, otherwise it goes straight through.

The Historic NSW Railway Stations site (listed below) states: "Rydal opened as a small local but important station in 1869, in an era as the main and branch lines expanded outwards from Sydney and raced across the country side towards towns and villages across NSW. Rydal’s small but distinctive building was designed with Victorian Gothic features with a unique layout as the station also incorporated the station masters residence in the same overall building design. This design feature was not done at that many stations across NSW, with only 5 other stations having a similar setup".
