The Rest of the World Thread

The building is almost 30 floors high, with at least 140-150 floors to go: http://i1.tinypic.com/o55mx3.jp...

As posted over at SSC... Mawson Lakes Interchange will be opened on the 26th of February. It will receive trains about once every 8-10 minutes during peak hours, and once every 15 minutes interpeak as seen in the new timetable for the Gawler line. http://www.transport.sa.gov.au/transport_network/pro...
