That's really nice mate. The only thing I would change is crop it in from the sides, I feel that the pillars are a slight distraction. I cropped it on my screen and I think it looks a bit better.
Great photo and good idea!
Cheers,
Owen.

All you'd need is a
model there, looking in to the distance!
Lovely shot!

Scott. I really like this, but I also would crop out the edges.

I personally liked the edges, but we are all different!

the beams would work better for me if there was a little space on either side of them also.

Scott, I really like this but at the risk of being different from other views instead of cropping the edes I would suggest to force copious amounts of vignetting to draw attention to the central portion or th frame
The contrast and background movement are excellent

One with a
model is in PP...
after reading the views I have decided to play with the crop a bit
The rail system is fun to shoot on and fortunately we had a nice attendant at town hall... I will PP that one tomorrow

nice shot........ but I would have liked to have seen the front or the end of the train rather than the middle......... as it would have said a lot more.....

I also like the edges, but would be interesting to see a shot without them.
Also it doesnt look like Town Hall station...I can see sunlight

What are you doing down there while you're in Sydney?
Searching for some "hot stuff"?

Something different from you. Very creative and it works for me. I'm not sure about the crops that the other guys mentioned...but I'd be interested in seeing versions where the bench seat is different colours. Although the blue works very well I think the mood of this shot would change dramatically as the seat colour changes.

So did you sample their brew? Do they only have it on tap or can you buy case?
Cheers
