Whilst on the subject of remants, I thought I would post a couple
of pics from my Adelaide trip in March this year. This pic shows the
intersection of North Terrace and Pulteney St on a lazy Sunday morning. This
intersection used to have a three-way tramway junction. Many of the ornate span
poles still exist, as can be seen in this photo. Sorry about the
slight distortion, but I reduced the size of the photo, as it was
originally about 300kB.

PS-
Back in Melbourne, other 'remnants' can be the former Coburb Tram Depot, span
poles on the Point Ormond Route, as well as the odd pole on other abandoned
trackage. I am sure there are any number of remants you can find if you know
where to look. One interesting on was the points for 1 and 2 roads (I
think) at Malvern Depot that showed 'Brisbane Tramways', when I was last
there in 1990. I understand this was one set of surplus stock sold to Melbourne
after the closure of the Brisbane undertaking.
