I
have not got by Destination Paradise handy, but I can tell you that the MTT
wasn't in the tram building biz in a big way. Many of the F1's were built by
Pengelly, if the builder's plate on F1 264 was anything to go
by.
The
attached is a head on shot of H360 showing the apron of the H's without the
fruit that is now on the ones still in regular service. You will notice
the brass badges on the bottom of the headlights. Apparently these were
uncovered from underneath many coats of paint. No one knew they were there. One
of the real pleasures of tram restoration is finding things underneath paint or
new panelling, etc.

the other cars. I have construction dates, but no builder. Were these
done in MTT workshops or by Duncan & Fraser or Pengelly? I am now working
on Adelaide on my web site.
