Graph Paper Close Up waves Thatched Walkway at NikkoA sheet of graph paper, faded and marked with fine lines and ink, rests inside West Ryde Pumping Station. The station has pumped water to Sydney's northern suburbs continuously since Station No. 2 was commissioned in 1921.

Part of the West Ryde Pumping Station series.
