Sydney City visit using the new Metro : November 20 2024

in Actifit6 hours ago

Got a train strike lining up. Moved lunch with my friend a day early to avoid that. Check on the route planner - it said to get the train a few stops and change to the Metro and then back to the train I would have connected with in the city

Photo from inside the Metro with fewer stops and super fast. Got me hooked

Super modern station down deep. As I was early got out one station later just one block up from my old office. Chose to walk on a nice day with a bit of a sea breeze

Super modern goes to the seating - not a lot but modern. With trains every 4 minutes do not have to stand long

Walk past the centre of Hyde Park - always a few people enjoying the quiet

Bike path along the edge of Hyde Park - St Mary Cathedral in view

Looking the other way - one of the city hotels

Flower box theme - all sorts of Red Centre colours

Nice framing for a street display and Australia Museum signage

The last visit here was a to let sign - well there is now a Gentlemans Club. Fun photo as my friend has had a few arguments with that man in the library. He did not go up

Signage on the way back - train for one station

Follow the signs for Metro at Martin Place

Station goes from old to modern in a few escalators down

Pretty busy but OK to get a seat. Am told the mornings are standing only

Photo of the changeover - Chatswood RSL

Photo the other way over the Metro line. Never knew there was a Sebel hotel there

Dinner: Chicken curry from a Malaysian spice mix my wife found in the cupboard. Too much pepper - not me
