  This is great! The bridge looks so close to this today, makes me miss living in Sydney.

  Except the trains have been shunted off the side because of how many cars there are.

  I love exploring our history, I recently assisted my daughter with a project on the building of the Sydney Harb Bridge and whilst I didn't have access at the time to this site I had the pleasure of locating various photo's which I saved and reprinted via a USB and a Store, my daughter intends keeping her "A" mark for this assignment, the pics make it so realistic as though you were there taking pics

  Its interesting that there appears to be train lines on both sides of the bridge where these days the line is only one side.

  Great stuff State Library. There were trains on that side (as they still are today) and I think trams ran on the opposite side where cars now drive.
