Major infrastructure costs will be met with the electrification project which now casts a positive light on future passenger usage for this line.

Being on a well connected crossrail line the station now gives greater appeal for passenger usage than in 1917.

Between 2004-5 and 2005-6, passenger usage fell by 21% but in the years since then has risen again by more than 60%.

For a suburban station Fairfield has very low passenger usage (see figures right).

Despite its high passenger usage and the recent refurbishment (see below) the station is currently unstaffed.

Bryn is located in a largely industrial area, but passenger usage of the station has been rather small.

Yet we did upgrade some of our long-haul rail routes, and passenger usage is now at its highest level since 1945.

In the period 2004 to 2012 passenger usage has more than doubled.

The airport, in 2009, experienced a 30%+ growth in passenger usage.

It is predicted that passenger usage of the station will increase by 57% by 2020.
