Join your host Marc for an immersive walking tour through six of Sydney’s newest Metro stations, tracing a continuous journey from Waterloo to Victoria Cross. Along the way, you’ll uncover the remarkable engineering feats, colonial archaeology, striking station architecture, and human stories that brought one of Australia’s largest public transport projects to life.
