The Illawarra and Eastern Suburbs Line is located in Sydney, Australia, in CityRail's metropolitan and south coast network, and has two branches, one to Cronulla and the other to Waterfall. The network stretches from Bondi Junction in the north (and includes the Eastern Suburbs railway), through Helensburgh and the Royal National Park. The Illawarra line is joined to the South Coast line at Waterfall which extends the CityRail network outside the metropolitan area to Dapto in the south, then continuing to Kiama in the Shoalhaven region.
