Hi Bill,

I did answer yesterday - see: https://tdu.to/m/279534/re-ballarat-tramway-museum

Geelong 2 looks different because it has been restored to the original two-man open California combination style.

The ends were enclosed in the first half of the 1930s and they looked like the pic at:

I don’t often post to TDU but when I do it appears within minutes --- but it’s been over a day since yesterday’s one and not sighted as yet.

I queried whether Geelong 2 was/is a Butterbox.

I recall the excitement when Bylands got the body of one. But Geelong 2 doesn’t look like one (or maybe I’ve just forgotten).
