[TramsDownUnder] Cordite Ave

On the eve of Anzac Day it is perhaps appropriate to share an image
related to 'those who also served' - the thousands of women and men who
made the explosives and munitions for Australian troops in wartime.

The West Maribyrnong tram line was built to take those workers to the
factories in Melbourne's west.  It runs beside the aptly name Cordite Ave.

Mal Rowe - who has just now noticed the concrete pillar visible at left
which probably supported a guarded securtity gate in wartime.
