Re: Re: MOTAT pickings

Thanks, David.

It's a fine line between flogging a dead horse and just scrapping sometimes
but, they were pretty cars. Hate to see them go down like that.

Don't quite think stripping of wiring is correct. As the graffiti on
ths lower right hand side eludes to "Preservation". Not only did we
get the headlights, we preserved the whole of Auckland tram 89 (circa
1908), now on Display, unrestored but painted (complete with
headlights) in our Trams and Trolley Buses Display.

Cheers

Hmmmm.

Hope they got the headlights, too.

Members of MOTAT sneak up on Auckland car 89 intent on salvaging

wiring etc.

A fund raising task regularly undertaken back in the days.
