Flinders Street Station - Melbourne or Bombay?
Hi V ... I wonder if this tram racing past the iconic Flinders Street Station is heading for the elusive "Platform Nine and Three Quarters"? Perhaps it is heading for Bombay! Did you know that rumours abound that back in the early 1900's the plans for Bombay railway station and Flinders St railway station were mixed in the designers office in London and as a result the Bombay railway station now sits in Melbourne and the original Flinders St railway station was built in Bombay. Cheers J.
