Market Street, Sydney Monorail

The Sydney Monorail is seen here travelling above Market Street as it makes its way from the city's central business district towards Darling Harbour. This was taken on Sunday on its last day of operation after 25 years of service.

    And why would they get rid of a monorail? Makes no sense!

      It required a lot of maintenance work and it just didn't make enough money to make it worthwhile. Demolishing the track will also give them more space for a new development.
