Yeah it should be.... be a bit more careful if travelling on the weekend
tho... may be a  track closure on the North to worry about... if it looks
tight.. tell the PSS and he/she should be able to make arragements for the
train to be held.. it is over an hour so they should honour the
connection... and you could always get off at Strathfiels if it is really
tight..
