Flinders Street Railway Station Complex 1956-1962, Raymond Morris Collection, National Museum
of Australia. The decorative ridge capping on the concourse is still present. The Princes Bridge Shop
and Signal Box B (both now demolished) are on the left. The colour of the rendered areas seems
paler than the current colour, this may be due to changes in the colour slide.
