I'm not sure how steep it is but Edgecliff is at 22 metres and Bondi
Junction is 53.3 metres.

Looking at some gradient maps, there appears to be a flat section of about
250 metres between Edgecliffe and Bondi Junction. I have a feeling the
station site is in this area. Can anyone help with more info?
