I have been told that it could be Len Manny but don’t know.
It seems that no-one has kept details of tram tours. Attached is my spreadsheet showing the tram tours in NSW after researching from photos, etc.
An interesting points is that from old magazine the AETA organised tours for their members using the existing tram services. However there tours were not recorded.
Another amusing incident occurred on 19th February 1961 when tour was organised using P class tramcars 1483 and 1707. The cars were sent from Randwick Workshops to Dowling Street depot (where the tour was to start) the day before. Just as the tour was to get underway the tram crew realised that the cars were footboard cars and that they were banned so the crew refused to take the trams out. Luckily there were some members there who were tram drivers and they returned the cars to Randwick Workshops with many photo stops along the way.
