	North Shore railway line, Sydney - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The North Shore Line extends from Sydney Central station through the western limb of the City Circle, across the Sydney Harbour Bridge and along the North Shore area to Hornsby where it joins the Northern Line.
		The North Shore Line was opened on 1 January 1890 as a single track between Hornsby and St Leonards.
		When the Sydney Harbour Bridge was opened in 19 March 1932 a new Milsons Point station (on the bridge approach) came into operation and the North Shore Line was extended through it and over the Sydney Harbour Bridge to link with the underground lines of central Sydney.

	Rugby League History - RL1908.com - North Sydney Bears
		North Sydney was formed as a foundation club of the newly arrived rugby league game in 1908 and were known as the Shoremen.
		The North Sydney village itself was a working class community that was no different to the suburbs on the southern side of the harbour, apart from being a trifle more self-sufficient due to the reliance on harbour ferries for access.
		While the North Sydney club's catchment area in 1908 extended east to the coast and as far north as Gosford and the southern reaches of the Newcastle club, the majority of players were local waterside workers, labourers, quarrymen and boat builders.

	AustralAsia Railway Corporation
		It was built in 1825 for £500 and operated on the Stockton to Darlington line in the north of England.
		As the line was surveyed - a sufficient length being first chained by a surveyor, who was followed by axemen - trees had to be felled and a certain width maintained, which was specified in the contract, for drays to follow...
		Railways were needed to bring wheat and mining produce to Port Augusta and Adelaide, but these early lines were seen as the start of a transcontinental line that would foster the development of mining, tropical agriculture and trade with Asia.

	North Shore Line Theory (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		I've been studying the railway line in question (the North Shore Line, for those familiar with Sydney) for some time, and we could think of this as a scientific study in the traditional sense.
		Not only that, but my North Shore Line Theory is a very good one, and I can inerrantly predict what station a train will pass next given its current position and heading.
		As far as North Shore Line Theory is concerned, I don't have a scientific explanation.

	Sydney, NSW: Lower North Shore (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		The Lower North Shore's beguiling appeal has a lot to do with the pockets of bushland everywhere that have escaped the woodcutter's axe and the developer's bulldozer because of the steep, rocky terrain.
		No matter where you are on Sydney's Lower North Shore, the harbour is never more than a kilometre or two away, its waters lapping the shores of a myriad sheltered coves and bays.
		Set on the shores of Sydney Harbour, it is home to around 4,000 animals, its collection places a special emphasis on Australian wildlife.

	Alert for Sydney's railway network - smh.com.au
		Sydney's railway network may be in worse shape than first thought - riddled with poorly made and aging tracks where cracks and splits are being found almost daily.
		The revelation comes on top of recent repairs to cracks in the city and country networks, and means that metropolitan tracks will be in a constant state of alert for years.
		Some of the more serious problems have included a 13-metre section having to be replaced, 17 cracks found in one section in a single day, and 24 trains delayed on the North Shore as a crack was repaired.

		Across North Korea at 7am each day, loudspeakers come to life and blare a rousing song titled 10 Million Human Bombs for Kim Il-sung and, according to recent visitors, it is common to see people of all ages singing along fervently.
		North Korea's Juche or self-reliance doctrine borrows these and other elements of Christianity and combines them with the patriarchism of the ancient Chinese sage Confucius and a millenarian Korean sect called Chondogyo.
		Despite North Korea's failed economy and the misery of most of its 22.5 million citizens - trapped in poverty and decayed housing and ravaged by malnutrition and periodic famine, power flouts and diseases such as tuberculosis and cholera - its core belief still burns bright in the country's self-isolation from the world.
