You can add these to the list of closed surburban goods yards:

St.Leonards
Chatswood
Gordon (Siding only)
Hornsby
Burwood
North Strathfield
Carlingford
Dulwich Hill
Alexandria
the many various small goods sidings along the Main North between North
Strathfield and Hornsby.

Most of these have been long closed and lifted, after the demise of the once
great NSWGR steam-era empire.

These are the ones I know - there are probably many stations in the west, south,
south-west lines that once had goods yards or sidings.

Still open:

Leightonfield
Chullora Industrial branch (sidings)
Chullora (National Rail)
Yennora
