Buses replace trains on Central Coast-Newcastle line due to urgent repairs

File picture

The state's commuter rail authority is warning people travelling in the Central Coast/Lake Macquarie areas to allow extra time to reach their destination, as NSW starts its post-long-weekend four-day-week.

NSW TrainLink North posted a message on social media on Tuesday morning (October 3) saying that buses were replacing trains in both directions on the Central Coast-Newcastle line between Wyong and Morisset because urgent overhead wiring repairs were required at Wyee.

"At this stage we do not have a forecast for when the line will reopen," NSW TrainLink said.

"Please allow plenty of extra travel time."
