Hey guys, I'm an amateur photographer that has just started getting into the urbex community. I have bought a camera and bring it everywhere I go whilst doing urbex related things. I have done: St james train tunnels, Fortress, Tigers club, Bronte mental asylum, Glebe tramsheds and various rooftops around sydney. I am good friends with Mist and I have met up with Spades a few times. Me and Mist share an instagram account on which we post lots of our urbex photos on and Spades has recently joined us. Here are some of the photos I have taken with my Canon 600d. Oh and my name Is Gyro.

A lot of people would be jealous of you getting into St James, I would ask security related questions for knowledge sake but I doubt you'd spill, even in a PM. Well done anyway!

All I would say is security definitely hasn't got any laxer...just people have gotten smarter- the way Mist, Gyro and I go is fairly dangerous and requires alot of running. An explorer and friend of ours, Kays, broke both sides of his jaws and a rib once in entry.

Would not recommend to the faint hearted, but I'm sure CC have keys or what-not

Welcome Gyro and nice shots!

Running down a live train tunnel certainly doesn't sound safe! What did you end up doing with your friend Kays? Was he still able to walk out by himself? And what did you tell the doctors at the hospital?

I was there with kays and gyro when this happened, basically there is a flat side and a shitty side, Kay's was running on the shitty side, something clipped his feet and he tripped and his jaw hit the tracks, he got out fine but was in a lot of pain. We stopped and called an ambulance telling them that he was sprinting and tripped hitting his jaw on a kerb.

That's why mummy told us to walk across the road & not run. Be careful guys, last thing you wanna do is die doing something stupid like urban exploring.
I hope your mate is ok & his jaw gets better soon.

His jaw is all good, it happened 2 months ago, but for this entrance you have to run

Sources tell me that they have placed a mobile camera trailer thingy (see THIS link) at the Wynyard portal of CQ station untill they instal permenent cameras.
They have also began monitoring the SJ portals' camera 24/7 due to 'hightened' activity.

Saw a couple cameras there lately. I was going to take my gf down there, but then I was like, what the cameras. Ended up some interesting time *cough cough* right outside the entrance.

I don't think they'd be appropriate here. ;) Mebbe I'll video sometime, be on the lookout for an "urbex" video on P***Hub.
