Key points

• A revised train timetable for the South Coast Line will add hundreds of services each week, aimed at shortening waits for commuters. From 15 November, peak trains between Wollongong and Sydney CBD rise to four per hour, meaning a service every 15 minutes.
• Off-peak and weekend frequency will also double, with trains roughly every 30 minutes.
• Nineteen additional Mariyung trains will join the line, offering charging ports and space for luggage, prams and bicycles.
