Talk:Parliament railway station

Photography
The article states that photography is banned on the platforms. Firstly, and directly related to Wikipedia: are we therefore sure that the photo used for this article was obtained with permission? Secondly, why is it banned? Even "underground-style" stations in the UK (eg Liverpool Central don't ban photography entirely, so long as flash is not used. 86.136.249.84 23:16, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Escalators
Someone should try to 'count' the number of steps by timing the trip and calculating the nuber of steps per minute. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 211.28.129.41 (talk) 00:25, 23 April 2007 (UTC).

The escalators from concourse level to platforms 1 & 2 have about 105 (Lonsdale St)and 110 (Bourke St)exposed 'steps'. A drop of about 19.5m. The longest ones at Melbourne Central have 81.

Needs a section on exits
There are two exits, and it'd be nice if we could describe them easily to out of towners...

Elevator?
This article should state very clearly exactly *where* the elevator is located, so that those with reduced access can easily find it. In fact, each station's Wikipedia page should state this, it need only be one sentence in the article, but would probably be the most informative part of the article.

Even the Metro Trains and PTV websites fail to clearly state where the elevators are located - it's *very* frustrating! 49.183.153.169 (talk) 21:02, 18 August 2022 (UTC)

should the buses on lonsdale street be mentioned
Slightly north of Parliament station is Lonsdale street which has a bus stop with multiple bus routes at the intersection with spring street. Additionally the station concourse provides clear signage to Lonsdale street. However I am not sure whether they should be mentioned in the transport connections section or not.

 * i have ultimately decided not to include them as the bus stop is 650m from the station NotOrrio (talk) 09:36, 11 May 2023 (UTC)
