Excellent! Well done! This is the only video I was able to find that actually showed step by step how to get a train when arriving from overseas. This is exactly what I needed. Thanks!
@@JJ-vy2rh oh wow!!!! Surprised the government did not own the track! This is interesting, I have to search on Wikipedia to find out more~ thanks for sharing!
@@JJ-vy2rh That's more like it - except that it's only the stations for the domestic and international airports that are privately owned. The trains serving the airport are part of the Sydney train system and go to a much wider area than the CBD. At morning and afternoon peak hours, the trains can get a bit crowded but we've always found other passengers to be understanding. It's a good idea to ask your hotel which is the best station for you to use, and how to get there from the airport. Almost all trains in the Sydney system are as you show - double deck and air-conditioned.
Thank you ~ You can get the SIM card at the arrival hall in the public area, a lot of options all the way to the train station. Their 4G very slow and limited 5G coverage:p
@@Follow_ussg Thanks for your help Im Aussie coming there in May from Melbourne just trying to get a bit of a idea of it all seems like a good railway system you have
it's expensive, there is a $15 airport station surcharge as well as the normal train fare (approx. $3). The train is not a dedicated airport train, it runs on a normal suburban network.
This is a good service if time is tight and money isn't.The ticket has a premium price, construction wasn't cheap. If I have time I take the bus from the terminal,alight at Rockdale then onto the train network.Opal card is a blessing,some good deals.
@@Follow_ussg hi Jim. Maybe you could go to an AFL game at the MCG, I'll think of other things and let you know. Have you seen the penguins or great ocean road?

Very good video Jim, that trip is expensive as that part of the track is privately owned

@@Follow_ussg Jim all of the track is privately owned except for 4 stations including the 2 airport station's

So you CAN take this train back to the airport? Thanks!
Yes, you can take the same trip back to the Airport.

May I ask are thre International and Domestic terminals together, I assume its Kingsford Smith airport
Hi,
It’s just one stop between the international and domestic departures ^_^
I was there last week and visited two terminals.
Thanks for your reply I assume it’s clearly marked so you know where to get off
Yeah~ You will be fine in Australia as long you can speak English ^__^
Beautiful island with nice people and wines.!
@@Follow_ussg Thanks for your help Im Aussie coming there in May from Melbourne just trying to get a bit of a idea of it all seems like a good railway system you have
Ohhhhh, you will be fine to find the way for sure ^____^
Its embarrassing that no NYC airport has anything as clean, modern snd efficient as this.
Hopefully there will be improve train services soon ^_^
Not even JFK? Thats crazy
Great video, you have helped me alot to plan my journey :) thank you! Did you find out how much the journey cost?
You are welcome~
I forgotten to check the cost but definitely cheaper and faster option ^_^

Oh!! Thanks for sharing!
Is the bus has enough space for luggages?
Within reason,I forget the route number but the westbound goes to Burwood.If you're Chinese that might be good!!
^_^
I think the train will be easier to handle the luggages :p
Jim please visit Melbourne one day.
We have been there a few times before we started vlog the attractions:p
Any new things we should visit and vlog?
@@Follow_ussg hi Jim. Maybe you could go to an AFL game at the MCG, I'll think of other things and let you know. Have you seen the penguins or great ocean road?
