A few trams from 1958

Hi, just a quickie as I rediscovered some photos from the camera of Ian Brady, which were passed to me by a mate (after he bought them second hand).

As a younger man in the late 1980s, I had the great pleasure of living on Glebe for about seven years.  I would often trip over the tram rails that poked through the road tarmac from time to time.  As I was falling, I would often dream of the trams that plied their way through Glebe and Forest Lodge 30 years before I was falling about the place.  Thankfully on 17 November 1958, Ian took his camera and recorded several of those scenes.

Here are two from the general location of the intersection of Parramatta and Glebe Point Roads.

A few from around the location of Ross and Pyrmont Bridge Roads.  This area is technically Forest Lodge, from memory.

And finally, back in town as we called it in those days.  West Circular Quay.

Thanks to Ian we get to see a bit more of Sydney that exists no more.

Cheers

Don
