RE: Tramway reorganisation in 1929/1930

On Fri, 19 Oct 2001 08:27:53 +1000, Paul Nicholson asked

Does anyone know why the change was made at that time?

I'll have to look up the relevant sources, but from memory it was because of increasing competition by private motor bus services with Government tramway and railway services. The grouping of street transit modes together for regulatory purposes become a stronger imperative for the NSW Government than the grouping of rail modes together for technology purposes
Cheers,

Bill
