Australian mystery structures. 🤔 #sydney #sydneyaustralia #australia #monorail #abandoned #mystery

The Sydney Monorail (originally TNT Harbourlink and later Metro Monorail) was a single-loop monorail in Sydney, Australia, that connected Darling Harbour, Chinatown and the Sydney central business and shopping districts. It opened in July 1988 and closed in June 2013.[1]

There were eight stations on the 3.6-kilometre (2.237 mi) loop, with up to six trains operating simultaneously. It served major attractions and facilities such as the Powerhouse Museum, Sydney Aquarium and Sydney Convention & Exhibition Centre. The system was operated by Veolia Transport Sydney, a former subsidiary of Veolia Transport and a subsidiary of Veolia Transdev at the time of cessation.

I remember riding the monorail with my mum when I was a kid it was awesome, its been so long since I've been to the city didn't even know they had shut down. Seems a Shame.

They are actually now demolishing the monorail station at old Harbourside shopping centre

Sadly Seaworld Gold Coast will have to close their monorail due to not being able to get the necessary parts to upgrade or do proper maintenance. They did try hard to keep it going as it was viable for them as a tourist draw card

Almost universally detested by Sydneysiders - overpriced ($5 / trip in 2013) going where no-one wanted to go, its ugly tracks obscuring what was left of Sydney's heritage buildings in the most unsympathetic way possible ... the monorail had to go
