Other half of the dual gauge crossover at the exit of Southern Cross Station has now been rebuilt
Originally commissioned in July 2014, they were still in their original configuration in March 2016. The XPT derailed over a similar set of points at North Melbourne in 2014, so the design was modified to close the gap for trains crossing the wheel transfer zone.
