It took me a little over an hour to get from Penrith to the station near the domestic air terminal. But if you get an express it won't take as long.

Or maybe it was an hour and a half.
Anyway, you'll probably have to switch trains to get to Central Station.

You're screwed....
Buses replace trains between Penrith & Blacktown this weekend. Usually takes 50 minutes from Penrith to Central if you get an express (Blue mountains train) 75 minutes if its an all stations.

Damn and if it is buses between Penrith and Blactown .... that'll balloon your trip out to 2-3 hours.

The shortest train trip from Penrith to Central Sat morning is 54 minutes. The longest is 1hr 8min. Trains seem to be around every 15-20 min. http://www.131500.com.au/ Some info regarding the track works: Quote:
