Getting Around

Walk along Turner St heading west to get to the station. The landing closest to the apartment goes to the city. This is the "Hurtstbridge" or "Epping" Line. When you return to the area using the train ensure that the journey isn't "express" as it can sometimes go past Victoria Park.
