"Sir, are you koalafied to be standing over the yellow line like that?" Transport for NSW officials wrote.

The "un-bear-ably cute passenger" took "a self-guided tour of the station" while security staff warned local trains to slow down while passing through the area, the post said.

The koala was captured unharmed.

"With the guidance of some NSW police officers, it found its way back to the bush safe and sound," officials wrote.
