Trammies in Auckland have just concluded a week of celebrations of

the

100th anniversary of electric trams in Auckland.

Last Sunday there was a cavalcade of trams - seven cars in total on

the

service - including our two Aussies - 1891 ex Sydney ex Wanganui

Baldwin

tram motor 100 and the newly rebuilt Melbourne 321.

Because our workshop fan overhead is down at present while building
extensions are in progress, shunting cars is being done by either

our

ex-ATB tug/jitney or as the opportunity arose last weekend the

venerable

Baldwin. Attached a couple of shots (G Anderson, K Bennett) of 100

towing

321that will be of interest to comrades across the pond.

Very unusual and interesting photos. Hope you can send them to
'Tramways and Urban Transit' magazine. They deserve wide circulation.
