Why is the parent stop for Westmead Light Rail platforms the heavy rail stop?

214510 Westmead Station
2145553 Childrens Hospital Light Rail
2145554 Childrens Hospital Light Rail 2 2145553
2145576 Childrens Hospital Light Rail 1 2145553
2145584 Westmead Hospital Light Rail
2145585 Westmead Hospital Light Rail 1 2145584
2145586 Westmead Hospital Light Rail 2 2145584
2145587 Westmead Light Rail 1 214510
2145588 Westmead Light Rail 2 214510

Is Westmead the only location where this occurs? (Newcastle, L1, L2 etc.)

Hi All,

Yes @vk2xxy, 214510 Westmead Station is the parent stop for
2145587 Westmead Light Rail 1 214510
2145588 Westmead Light Rail 2 214510

as it allows for connections and internal routing between the light rail and heavy rail. This provides the customer with more accurate trip planning results.

@aurora, this can occur in major station hubs. E.g. Central station, Town Hall, Newcastle Interchange
