Well, I hope to draw multi-layered maps of Wellington track, trolleybus and
Melbourne track in detail - some day! In high-resolution vector format
(Adobe Illustrator) Not to anyone's deadline though! Once I get started I
will be trawling for information.
Cheers,
Brent Efford

that appeared in the "Railway Observer" issue No.85 (July-Sept 1960, vol.17
no.3) as part of the last of three articles on the history of Wellington
Tramways by D.K.G. Greenhill.
The map shows the system more or less at its peak, after the opening of the
Bowen Street diversion. It shows only a minimal number of street names but
does
indicate tramway installations, substations and fare sections.
