Waterfall, New South Wales

Waterfall is a suburb of Sydney, Australia. It is adjacent to Engadine. The Waterfall railway station is the terminus for CityRail's suburban Illawarra line, and has since become synonymous with the rail disaster on January 31, 2003 of an interurban train service operated by unit G7 which crashed just past Waterfall. The cause of G7's crash was determined to be a "heart attack" in the driver and a failure of the safety equipment and the guard to stop the train.
Waterfall is the last town before the commencement of the F3 freeway/Princes Highway to the city of Wollongong.
