Berowra 44.661, Cowan 48.814 = 4.153
Waterfall to Otford invalid.
Waterfall 38.741, Helensburgh 46.384, Otford 52.639 =  7.643 & 6.255
Heathcote to Waterfall is 5.588

I think that the NSW record goes to the Newcastle "Suburban Area", which is
bounded by Morisset, Newcastle and Telarah.
Dora Creek to Awaba is 10.073

Newcastle Suburban trains go to Scone and Dungog, and on these lines, you
have: Branxton to Singleton : 23.331 Singleton to Muswellbrook : 49.898
