Leppington railway station is the terminus of the South West Rail Link which serves the south-western Sydney suburb of Leppington. It opened on 8 February 2015.[2] A ten road stabling facility is located to the west of the station at Rossmore.[3] There are 850 car park spaces available.

Platforms and services

Leppington has two island platforms with four faces.[4] Initial services consisted of a half-hourly shuttle to Liverpool.[5] From 13 December 2015, trains operate directly to the city via Granville. Despite all four platforms capable of serving any line, platform 2 and 3 are normally used to serve the T2 and T5, while platforms 1 and 4 remain mostly unused. [6] From 26 November 2017, Cumberland Line services stop at the station, providing a link to Parramatta, Blacktown, Schofields and Richmond.[7][8]
