Sleepers 2

Seeking to take an iconic view of the suspension bridge took my wandering down the little used tracks of the Harbour Railway. Beautifully rusting and rotting, these near abandoned tracks were once the life blood of the City Docks in times past, taking away the goods and produce of the ships that arrived and unloaded their cargos. As recently as the 60s these rails were in constant use. Today, nature has encroached on them, beautifying them and softening them. The only activity now the buzz of grasshoppers and the flitting of butterflys.
