[edit] up shore / down shore
Aren't the labels "Up Shore" and "Down Shore" the wrong way around on the station diagram? -- Danny Yee 05:05, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

- I'm from Sydney and I don't understand those labels. Is it talking about North Shore? If so, they still don't make much sense to me. Does up shore mean moving towards the North Shore?? --Alexxx1 (talk/contribs) 10:46, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
- Up means towards Sydney Central, Down means away from Sydney Central in railway terminology. So the Up Shore is the term for the railway track that carries trains in the direction towards Central, be that north, south, east or west, it doesn't matter, as long as it is towards Central.

- That's rather confusing in this particular case, as the "Lower" North Shore is the bit around North Sydney/St Leonards (closer to Central), and the "Upper" North Shore is the area around Gordon (towards Hornsby). -- Danny Yee
