No they aren't. Bradfield's original city railways plans were to extend 4
tracks to at least St Leonards with a possible extenstion to Chatswood, but
Chatswood station was never actually designed to allow for a 4th track, and
the land area that could be used there is now part of the bus interchange. I
can't see Telstra shifting Chatswood telephone exchange so another track can
be installed on that side... 8-)

Craig.
