Castlebrook Line

The N2  is a rapid transit line in the NotchRail network. It was formerly coded Line 16.

The line is coloured grey and orange on NotchRail maps and timetables.

History
The line first opened to Castlebrook in 2054. The line was extended to Pinemeadow in 2057. At the same time, the line was quadruplicated from Castlebrook to Silverdale University. Another extension to Littleroot Town happened in 2058, followed one year later by another to Viridian Town.

In 2061, the outermost two tracks in the section of quadruplicated track were dedicated to express services. This meant platforms 1 and 4 at Newborough and Silverdale stations were not used.

In 2063, Silverdale began to expand as a suburb. Express services began stopping at this station. In exchange, express trains stopped only at Silverdale University during AM peak for outbound, and PM peak for inbound.

The quadruplication reached Strathfield station in the same year.
