Liverpool railway station is located on the Main South line, serving the Sydney suburb of Liverpool. It is served by Sydney Trains T2 Inner West & South, T3 Bankstown, T5 Cumberland and South West Rail Link services. ==History== The town (now suburb) of Liverpool on the Georges River was one of the earliest settlements of the colony of New South Wales. The station opened on 26 September 1856 and was an early terminus of the Main South line.〔(Liverpool Station ) NSWrail.net〕 Immediately north of Liverpool station, a former branch line crossed the Georges River and entered the Holsworthy military base. The pylons for the bridge over the river have been reused to provide a pedestrian walkway. In 1929, the line from Central was electrified. Liverpool remained the terminating point for electric services until the wires were extended to Campbelltown in 1968. It was also a calling point for regional services until the 1990s. In 1965, one person was killed and three were injured when a freight train collided with a stationary electric passenger train at Liverpool station.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Liverpool, NSW: Train Crash )〕 In 2000, the station underwent a major easy access upgrade with the provision of passenger lifts to the platforms, a new passenger concourse, toilets and a refurbishment of the heritage building on platform 1.〔"St Leonards and Liverpool Station Openings" ''Railway Digest'' April 2000 pages 10, 12〕 In January 2013 the Southern Sydney Freight Line to the east of the station opened. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Liverpool railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
