    Located directly above the Eastern Suburbs and Illawarra platforms 24 and 25 are the ghost platforms of Sydney Central Station.

    So where are the videos of the ghost platforms at Town Hall Station? Go down to platform 5 - 6 and look up the escalator to the top, look at the distance, there is a Ghost platform in between. I was working with a company assisting with some upgrading and one of the rail dudes said one day, "come with me" and wow, a complete set of platforms like new, never used? I walked from one end to the other, quite spooky. (and very dusty) I see nothing anywhere about Town Halls Ghost platforms?

    The unfinished tunnels should be converted into light rail platforms. With Central station having a ungraded currently anyway for the metro line & extra future capacity while would save additional money.

    on the Central to Redfern next to tracks leading to platform 9&10 you can see that there are enough room for another pair of tracks going to Central. There is 2 extra holes under bridges, up ramp going towards the flying junction etc. However this never eventuated. The T8 also took down some old track that was part of the track work from Illawarra main.

      The first had to extend the tunnels under Menzies Hotel to the Illawarra platforms at Town Hall under George Street keeping them away from the other tunnels under York Street by gradually veering over to Wynyard if you are coming from the Town Hall station end. I'm not sure about the southern end because there is not enough tunnel portals at Goulburn Street for two extra tunnels. I don't know what the plan was there, using crossovers back to the western line underground I guess?

    To gain access to places like this, all you really need to do is get yourself a hard-hat and one of those hi-vis safety vests that truckers or job-site workers wear, carry a flashlight, and some sort of impressive but fake ID badge or pass that you can flash to any officials who might confront you. Also carry a clipboard and take notes while acting as if you belong there. You might even carry a hand-held scanner or two-way transceiver to complete your image. Just a thought. ;-)
