Cronulla railway station is a railway station on the Cityrail network, a short distance from Cronulla Beach of Sydney, Australia, on the Pacific Ocean. It is the eastern terminus of a single line railway from Sutherland, New South Wales. The station is unusual in that the two platforms are situated end to end, rather than side by side.The station has Easy Access for wheelchairs because the platforms are at street level.
Clearways
Under the CityRail Clearways Project the single line to Cronulla will be duplicated. As a result, train stabling east of Cronulla will be replaced by stabling sidings opposite platform 2.
History
From 1911 until 1932, steam trams operated a service between Cronulla and Sutherland. The railway line that replaced the tram service opened in December 1939. Since the 1980's, the branch line from Sutherland has slowly been duplicated. Cronulla has the second longest platform in NSW, after Albury.
