Residents in Singleton now have more options for their daily commute thanks to the permanent addition of passenger train services.
They'll now have access to two daily return train services to Newcastle, seven days a week, bringing better timetable flexibility and improved access to other parts of the Hunter and Sydney.
It comes after more than a decade of campaigning by council and the "Two More Trains for Singleton" group, as well as a three-and-a-half year trial of the services.
Both the advocacy group and council are pleased with the move, but say they will continue to advocate for even greater public transport connectivity in the area.
