Steam on the Harbour: Darling Harbour’s working trains

Steam on the Harbour is a documentary showcasing Darling Harbour as a busy railway goods yard, long before it became one of Sydney’s main destinations for recreation and entertainment. It features footage shot by transport enthusiast and cinematographer Roger McKenzie and his friend Bernie Kent in the 1960s and 70s.

  1. Great video would have been a lot of fun working in that hard with all the different freight. Aberdeen beef also tan reefers into darling harbour yard for delivery.

    When did the yard actually close?
