Original post 6 December 2017:
Various delightful details of the recently repainted Flinders Street Station in a nice pinky beige : 1, 2. the beautiful #artnouveau #stainedglass above the entry, designed by #JamesFawcett, one of the stations designers, who also designed pressed metal ceilings and objects; 3. close up of one of the decorative #cartouche things which are apparently made of pressed zinc; 6. Next Train signs- the clocks could be the ones imported in the 1860s and used at this station ever since; 7. The wonderful but also rather weird #newellposts of the #degravesstreetunderpass platform stairs. According to the plans for the Melbourne Metro, one of each of these stairs will have a lift inserted, keeping the balustrade.
