Milsons Point in the 1920s

The facebook algorithm keeps feeding me pictures of trams for some
reason ...

Here are a couple showing the diversion of the Milsons Point tram
terminus which was needed due to the Harbour Bridge construction from
the mid 1920s.

I'm sure locals will be able to tell us more ...

Mal Rowe always impressed by the views that Sydney geography allows

Fwd: [TramsDownUnder] Re: Brisbane tram, 1968, 370 at Bardon


From: 'Roderick Smith' via TramsDownUnder <tramsdownunder@googlegroups.com>

681201Su - Bardon (Brisbane, Qld) - the last tram, dropcentre 370.  Roderick Smith.

Departure was delayed awaiting the return of a purloined controller.
Hence, this was the last of the four to enter Light St Depot.  We were able to ride in.
There was no ceremony, no speech.  Instead, police were on hand to bundle us out fast, with no time for a photo.
