In the public timetables around the 1970s, the height above sea level was listed together with mileage.
Suggest getting copy from ARHS archives section at 67 Renwick Street, Redfern.

Try spelling 'hight' correctly and Google might be more helpful

I'm looking at the 1961 Local Appendix to the Working Time Table (Northern Division) and it lists many things (mileage, length of platform, designation of employee in charge, loading banks, etc) but not height above sea level. The 1977 LA has the same information except measurement are metric, not imperial
