Epping Railway Station
Sydney, NSW, Australia.
In recent years there’s been an explosion of new construction work in Sydney outside of the city CBD.
Some interesting new railway stations have been built around Sydney - mainly underground.
Previously, most of the old suburban rail stations were quite bland, so this development has provided for some interesting photo opportunities
Also, there’s been a massive explosion in building construction work in the suburbs with Parramatta being one of the hotspots.
Included in these new developments are new infrastructure for universities such as UTS Sydney.
Another welcome development has been the construction of new libraries by some of the councils.
So I thought it would make a good project to try and document this new urban architecture.
It takes its name from the production of lime in the vicinity during medieval times. It is bounded to the north by Camomile Street, the division with Bishopsgate ward, before travelling due south along its eastern extremity, St. Mary Axe (which separates it from Aldgate ward), then south-west to the southernmost point of the ward (where Lime Street itself makes a small peninsula into Langbourn ward), cutting through Leadenhall Market and from there northwards up Gracechurch Street with the ward of Cornhill to the west. Just outside the ward boundary to the east is St Ethelburga's Bishopsgate, bombed by the IRA in 1993 and restored through generous donations, such as that provided by the Lime Street Ward Club.
A well organised ward, it has a long association with the insurance industry,with the specialist market Lloyd's of London based within its boundaries at the Lloyd's building. Three major construction projects — The Pinnacle, the Leadenhall Building and 100 Bishopsgate — are within the boundaries of the ward, and these skyscrapers will dramatically increase the number of workers in the 2010s.
Al een tijd geleden, op 28 april, ging ik voor het eerst maar eens naar België. Vanaf Hengelo met de trein van 4:54 ging het via Maastricht de grens over naar Luik en Namen. In Liège-Guillemins, het prachtige station centrale station van Luik, had ik ongeveer 40 minuten overstaptijd. De kap van dit station is een werkelijk bouwwonder dat niet zo heel lang geleden gereed kwam. Later op de dag zou ik hier nog een paar uurtjes zijn, om avond te eten en verschillende leuke treinen te fotograferen.
Maar 's ochtends was het eerst aan de 1842 om op de plaat te komen staan. Met voorop de 1825 was deze sandwich-dubbeldekker net binnengekomen, en de 1842 zou afgekoppeld worden. Op de foto is de loc net afgekoppeld en opgebouwd, en zou na het vertrek van de dubbeldeksstam richting het opstelterrein rijden.
Als je het mij vraagt heel mooie locs, met een frisse kleurstelling.

Eerie and charming place in Germany. This ironworks dates back to as late as 1870 and is kept a monument by UNESCO. It is also a great place for photography.
In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.

Shot on a Wista N 4x5 field camera using a Fujinon 90mm SW f/8 lens. This is a 50% crop from the centre of the negative. The film was semi-stand developed in Adox Rodinal (1:100) for 60 minutes with 3 gentle agitations after 30 minutes. The processing was done with a Mod54 in a Paterson tank with the developer @ 20C.
