Sydney’s Central Station—a critical interchange that connects with suburban, intercity, and regional rail services, buses, coaches, and light rail—has installed the longest escalators in the Southern Hemisphere as part of a milestone transformation to Australia’s busiest train station.

The nine escalators are 45 metres long and weigh more than 26 tonnes each.
