Inner Circle - Royal Park to Rushall/Merri - Most of it's formation is 
still in place, including a station that branched off the line at North 
Carlton.

Outer Circle - Fairfield to East Camberwell to Alamein (this section still 
remains, as the Alamein branch) to Huntingdale (??). The Rosstown railway 
also met at Huntingdale, to continue to somewhere around Windsor. The 
Rosstown railway however was not considered part of the outer circle.

City Circle - Flinders Street to Flinders Street via the City Loop. This 
only gets used by one or two empty trains per day, as per 2nd most recent 
Hillside working timetable - Not sure if they scrapped that move from the 
current working timetable.

There - Three circles, all once existing, all not taking passengers any 
more.

One day Sydney might dispose of their City Circle (-;
