Extension Proposal

Quick questions...it mentions that at least part of the service on the extension proposal will use the Bankstown Line (T-3). Will it simply be using the physical railway/instrastructure, or will it also replace the T-3 service? This doesn't seem to be made clear in the write-up as the link goes to the Bankstown Line service page. Also, in the list of stations, you guys have where one can transfer to the other lines save for St Leonards railway station. St Leonards railway station is currently served by the North Shore Line (T-1); shouldn't it be put in parentheses that one will be able to transfer to T-1 from this new service? Finally, I take it that Pitt Street and Victoria Cross are new stations and located in the CBD? Are there any maps showing the new route and how it interacts with existing routes/services in the CBD? Sorry for all the questions; hopefully, the page can be made a bit more clear as we get more information. --Criticalthinker (talk) 10:36, 20 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

More questions about the extension proposal. Can it be made more clear whether the the service will use the existing North Shore railway line between Chatswood and the harbor or a new route? Also, it should be made clear on this extension which stations are above ground and which are undergound, because as it's written now, there is really no clarity whether the ECRL is continued underground from Chatswood to Central, or if you'll still have to transfer at Chatswood to the above-ground North Shore railway line, and if you will have to transfer, exactly when the North Shore railway line goes subterranean on its way to Central. --Criticalthinker (talk) 12:33, 23 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
