Australia: Major disruptions reported on Sydney trains as of the morning of Sept. 9

Significant rail disruptions are ongoing across Sydney's train network as of the morning of Sept. 9. T1 North Shore & Western Line, T2 Inner West & Leppington Line, T3 Bankstown Line, T8 Airport & South Line, and T9 Northern Line were affected by cancellations and major delays due to urgent repairs on a broken rail near Central Station. Trains continue to run at reduced frequency, with possible changes at short notice. Officials have not provided a timeline for the resumption of normal services.

Lingering disruptions, including delays and cancellations, will likely continue until repair works are concluded. Increased congestion and increased demand are likely on alternative forms of transport.
