About this episode

The episode explores The Greenway, a historic goods railway corridor that connects Parramatta and Cooks River, highlighting its accessibility and historical significance.

An historic goods railway corridor becomes a link between the Parramatta and Cooks River. If I had to choose only two words to describe The Greenway, then they would be “accessible” and “history”. It is only a bit under 6kms long and is beside the light rail, so any level of capacity can be accommodated. There are also some playgrounds along the way. You can walk the lot, walk there and back, or 1km and then take the light rail. It also gives us access to parts of Sydney we may otherwise never visit. The rail line itself is an integral part of transport history as are the businesses which sprung up along it. It is pretty flat and an ideal spot for an amble.
