The South line via Sefton extends to the south-western suburbs of Sydney. It is double track throughout. Services between the city and Liverpool operate along the Inner West line, and the lines are combined in timetables. Long-distance trains on the Main South line formerly operated via Strathfield and Regents Park before travelling along the South line via Sefton, but these services now operate along the South via East Hills line. The Southern Sydney Freight Line is adjacent to the South line from near Sefton through to Liverpool, before continuing to Macarthur.
