Princes Pier Melbourne (Railway Pier)
Opened in 1915, New Railway Pier accommodated the largest of steamers and mail ships. Renamed Princes Pier in 1921, and was closed in 1989 after the containerisation boom.
December 2011 was reopening after refurbishment. The first 196 metres of the Pier fully restored, beyond that point the decking was removed and the original pylons preserved. This photo, a 45 second long exposure, are those remaining pylons.
