Rogans Hill Branch

The Rogans Hill line had its origins as a steam tramway which extended from Parramatta north to Castle Hill. This tramway broadly followed along Church Street, Windsor Road and the Old Northern Road. The railway followed most of this route, except that it branched from the Main West line at Westmead and joined the original route at Northmead. It also extended north of Castle Hill to Rogans Hill.

The line was never very successful, and suffered from competition with road traffic. After quite a short existence, it was closed in 1932. Because the line followed the road alignment, nearly all traces have been obliterated in subsequent road widenings.
