Hiya,

It will take a long time is the short answer! Reason being is the M4 motorway - there are sections still not wide enough for traffic, so you go from 4 lanes to 2 lanes etc, merging traffic, and then Parramatta Road (if you take that route).

Glenbrook is beautiful, and a great place to live, but be prepared for 3 hours return travel a day by car. Trains run also, but probably about the same time less you get a mountains train, in which case 50 mins each way I would expect. Prob is they only run in peak hour maybe twice an hour.

thanks very much, we drove M4 two weeks ago, from Glenbrook to Highway 7 (pennant Highway) in 15 minutes. But not in rush hour. I will be on a motorbike. so it may be abit quicker.

cant wait to get out there.
