Don't know if it's quite what you want, but there's a book called "Pictorial
Memories Lower North Shore" by Catherine Warne which has some very
interesting pictures of the station under construction, and a picture of the
proposed station by Dr Bradfield's personal artist.  You may be able to find
this book still available in bookshops on the north shore, otherwise try
North Sydney or Willoughby Council libraries.
