(Note: The way to travel for rail, light rail and ferry is to have an opal card). If you need help with the ticket readers, let one of the train folks know so they can help you. Transfers to light rail are clearly marked and easy to follow. The rest room could have been cleaner, but it was free. The exterior looks retro with red brick and has modern touches with the white exterior roof. Finally, there are elevators and escalators here. I know the last time I tried to go thru the subway at Waterloo in London I had to ask a nice young man for help with my suitcase to get it down the escalator, since they didn't have an elevator to use.

Just tap a card or a phone payment app to get in and out of the train platform areas. Then it was super easy to figure out what platform would lead you to your train.

This station is very popular with students from several universities and colleges in the area. The…read moremost famous university is Sydney University. The university is walking distance from the train station. The sporting centre of the University is a stone throw from the station. The station itself is kept very tidy and it is a branching point for many train lines. Their are toilets at the station but not on the platform, you have to walk up the stairs.

I finally managed to get off the train here to have a look around. Okay, it's not as if I couldn't…read morehave before, but Chatswood has always fascinated me - the suburb that is, not the railway station. The reason being is that it is a suburb but it has really tall buildings. Well, that isn't all that uncommon these days, but back when I was a teenager (or at least in my early twenties) it was. It sort of made Sydney to feel like a real city. As for the station, well it's pretty cool, and quite large as well, and the trains come by quite regularly as well.

I feel like Chatswood Station's proud father.

There are gyms, bars, cafes, and more shops and restaurants than you can throw a tourist at. The gateway to the north-west, Chatty station is still one of my favourite train stations in Sydders (in your face, Wynyard!)

The old Sydney General Post Office has been transformed into the Sydney Fullerton Hotel. This was a perfect place to stay. So convenient and so beautiful. Tours are available. 25 Martin Place was once the tallest reinforced concrete office building in the world. It was controversial as several historic buildings were torn down for its construction. It houses the US Consulate. Several war memorials are in the mall. The Sydney Cenotaph is outside the old General Post Office. It honors the ANZAC forces that who fought in World War I. The Commando Memorial honors Australian commandos who fought in World War II and later wars. It is a small seat near the entrance to the Martin Place Station. The Sydney Hospital marks the end of the pedestrian mall. Read the information on the large displays along the mall to learn more.

This station is pretty much located in the heart of Sydney's financial district, however it…read morebasically only services a single line, and that is the line that heads out to Bondi Junction and Kings Cross. The station itself is okay, expect for the lack of restrooms, at least as far as I could see. Trains aren't all that frequent either. Then again, it really isn't one of those stations that I'd make a habit of disembarking the train from.

As far as train stations go this one isn't anything special…read more Its proximity to Westfields and the Parramatta Interchange make it a handy stop. Lifts to each platform are good for the mobility impaired (like me when I busted my ankle that time) and most each platform is under cover which will keep you dry when it's raining. With only four platforms though, the real question will be how it will continue to handle the growth of western Sydney. This station can be a nightmare at peak hour already.

On the north side of the station is a great Chinese restaurant that opened in 2012. Forgot the name of it, but remember their roast duck was ono. It's really big so you can't miss it. If you are heading west from Sydney, you can get the Jetcat catamaran from Circular Quay and walk up to Parramatta station at the jetcat terminus on the river. Takes a little longer, but what a nice ride along the Parramatta River.

Museum Station is the stop after Central Station on the Airport Link train line. This station was…read morefirst opened and has signage to resemble those found in the London Underground. It also reminded me of a metro station in Cambridge, MA that I visited while in the Boston area earlier this year which has a similar retro look. The location of this station is very convenient as it is located in the southern end of Sydney CBD right next to Hyde Park. I used this station the most while in Sydney as my hotel was located about a block away from here. It made for easy commuting to and from Sydney Airport as a result. Can't recall if there is a lift here, but I decided to carry my luggage down the stairs as it wasn't too arduous. Unlike Central Station and Town Hall Station, there are only a couple lines that make stops here as there are only two platforms. The T2, which is the Airport Line and the T3. If you are going to other stations in the Sydney CBD, it is convenient to catch a train from here. But if you need to go to Kings Cross and Bondi Junction, you will need to transfer at Central or Town Hall. Found Museum Station to be a pleasant home station to use for my travels everyday while visiting in Sydney. I like how Sydney tries to maintain old structures while implementing new technologies. It is refreshing to see this compared to what happens to buildings like these in the US. It seems here we are more prone to tear a landmark like this down and build a new shiny station to replace it.
