[edit] Photography

The article states that photography is banned on the platforms. Firstly, and directly related to Wikipedia: are we therefore sure that the photo used for this article was obtained with permission? Secondly, why is it banned? Even "underground-style" stations in the UK (eg Liverpool Central don't ban photography entirely, so long as flash is not used. 86.136.249.84 23:16, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Escalators

Someone should try to 'count' the number of steps by timing the trip and calculating the nuber of steps per minute. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 211.28.129.41 (talk) 00:25, 23 April 2007 (UTC).

The escalators from concourse level to platforms 1 & 2 have about 105 (Lonsdale St)and 110 (Bourke St)exposed 'steps'. A drop of about 19.5m. The longest ones at Melbourne Central have 81.
