Hi SKW , our youngest is 8 ,you are not far from us , what train station do you use , I know there is one at deer park , didnt know there was a train station where you are ,if I ever need the train I use watergardens ,takes me 6mins from Caroline springs and that includes parking the car and sitting on the train waiting for it to depart ,being the start of the line I always get a seat ,so for us when they put a train station at cs it will be the other end of cs so I would still use the watergardens ,they have started work on a train station at Williams landing so they seem to be adding to the rail network ,how do you find shopping at cs and have you tried the watergardens ,maybe on a future shopping trip to cs you could meet up with my wife for a coffee ?
