Central Railway Station (2)

Significant buildings in Sydney can be recognised by their use of sandstone. In the construction of the third incarnation of Sydney Station, the sandstone was sourced from the Saunders Family quarry in Pyrmont, known sarcastically by the quarrymen as "Paradise", which produced the most mellow yellow block sandstone.

The tram interchange on the first floor was in the original design, to replace the tram that used to run from the 1874 station, through Belmore Park, and along Pitt Street to the centre of the city. In 1906, the trams ran the reverse to that in which the lite-rail now runs. The government is extending the lite-rail infra-structure throughout the city.
