Tramway Culture

Interesting to see that old "trammie" culture is alive and well even
on this list with former employees referring to others as "Mr".
In my time at Camberwell (1974-1976) the DIs (District Inspectors)
were always referred to as "Mr". I think even among the men in green.
Can't remember what we called the starters and the inspectors. Can
any old trammie enlighten me?
The practice was maintained at the Ballarat tramway museum with many
of the volunteers referring to each other as "Mr" rather than by
their Christian names.
