We are remembering the 31 people who lost their lives in a fire at Kings Cross station 38 years ago, including Station Officer Colin Townsley.
Our thoughts remain firmly with their loved ones.
River levels may rise as #StormClaudia brings heavy rain.
Don't walk or drive near swollen rivers, they have strong currents that can pull you in.
Stay safe and plan ahead 👉 https://t.co/XnuRoykfec
