    This is great! The bridge looks so close to this today, makes me miss living in Sydney.
  • Christian Biggins said:
    Except the trains have been shunted off the side because of how many cars there are.
  • Better Knot said:
    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
  • astrogirl969 said:
    Its interesting that there appears to be train lines on both sides of the bridge where these days the line is only one side.
  • Darren Davis said:
    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.

    Previously:
    Horse-drawn Omnibus, Westmoreland Street, Dublin
    Coral and Copper Snow
  • Niall McAuley said:
    This is later than the Coral Snow shot - the swan necked lights no longer have glass globes, but strange danglers.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The danglers are 1920-23 according to our favourite reference on Dublin Street Lighting from archiseek
  • derangedlemur said:
    Taken from no. 7 Front Square, by the look of it.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    On those lights, I see both kinds - danglers near and globes far. So I think this is in the period 1920-23.
