Remembrance Day

I recall that in the era of the Melbourne and Metropolitan Tramways
Board (1919-1983) trams stopped at 1100 on Remembrance Day (11
November) each year.
I think the power was turned off for one minute and the trams stopped
where they stood; was that correct?
If so, when did the practice cease?
And, if I may go slightly off topic for one sentence, did the same
procedure apply to the MMTB buses?
