On old section of railway line between Central Station in George St and Darling Harbour was reopened in August...as a walking track.
With the New York High Line in mind, the Goods Line is an "urban renewal project" for pedestrians and bikes.
It's currently a 300m trek through the UTS buildings in Ultimo which ends behind the Powerhouse Museum.
Plans are afoot to extend it.
