South Brisbane Train Station, Brisbane

The South Brisbane Railway station was built in 1891. It was heritage listed in 1992, and was noted as being a "substantially intact masonry railway station with early platform furniture" (see the John Oxley Library blog for more information).  


An interesting design feature to note on the building - as can be seen below, the cast-iron columns on the varandah double as down-pipes.
