Chaos at Sydney train stations during peak hour

Sydney commuters are facing major delays on the T2, T3, T5, T6, T7 and T8 lines after overhead wires required urgent repairs at Flemington right as peak travel time hit.

Commuters are livid to be facing delays with buses replacing trains between Lidcombe and Olympic Park.

Delays are also expected on the Inner West Line, North Shore Line and the Airport Line.

All Hurstville to Bondi Junction services will make additional stops at St Peters and Erskineville.
