Re: Longest platform?

["Jim Leppitt" <leppijlk@virtual.net.au>]

According to my 1975 edition (now i am showing my age) of The Guiness Book
of Rail Facts & Feats Perth SG at 2500ft was the third longest in the world
after Chicago and Kharagpur, India.
It was the only Aussie listing in the World's top 22.
