You don’t have to be a trainspot­ter or J‑line com­muter to be inter­est­ed in the rede­vel­op­ment of the John­sonville Line (though it undoubt­ed­ly helps). In any case, you should­n’t miss your one and only oppor­tu­ni­ty tomor­row to walk the tracks between Crofton Downs sta­tion and the Wadestown cross­ing loop. High­lights include spec­tac­u­lar views of the gorge and a cou­ple of spooky tun­nels to explore.

For a sneak peek, here’s a video of the jour­ney, com­plete with alarm­ing squeaks and rat­tles and run­ning com­men­tary by an overex­cit­ed tod­dler, tak­en just before ren­o­va­tions began in earnest.

 

Clips of the rest of the trip are view­able over on YouTube, and you might also be inter­est­ed in some pho­tos of progress post­ed over at Sky­scrap­erCi­ty.
