Very soon afterwards came Bunnerong Power Station on the shores of Botany Bay. The fifties saw the state's insatiable thirst for oil and petroleum satisfied by the construction of refineries in the district and the development of Cooks River goods yard as one of the busiest in the metropolitan area. More recently has come the growth of Port Botany, the second port of Sydney.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Calibri;font-size:1.0em;color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;\"\u003eThis book tells the story of the railway's role in the development of the wider Botany area.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Calibri;font-size:1.0em;color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;\"\u003eWhere old reports have been used containing Imperial weights and measures the metric equivalent is shown; otherwise metric weights and measures have been used.
