  Post 9th July 1949 when the last tram left the Pillar on the Kingstown line No7

• Niall McAuley said:

  Well , the trams are gone, so it's after 1949.
  
  DannyM8 Snap!

  Is that the original image? It looks like it's been run through a sharpen filter.

• derangedlemur said:

  I don't think it's '30s, btw. There'd have been fewer postwar cars about then.

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  derangedlemur I think it's 1940s (from skirt lengths and girls' hair dos), and I tweaked shadow/highlight because the shadows were so dark. This'll give you an idea of original...

Horse-drawn tram, Patrick Street, Cork

  Hi, Very interesting to see the 'knifeboard' arrangement for top deck passengers on the trams in both photographs. This arrangement was superceded by the 'Garden Seat' configuration where passengers face forward as in modern day buses etc. I think the change was gradual starting in the late 1870s early 1880s.

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  Leonard Bentley Thank you so much! Hadn't heard that term before, but will use it as a tag in future, or Garden Seat where applicable. This says that the term was first used in Punch on 15 May 1862...

  The rails seem to very wide apart compared with the later electric trams.

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  blackpoolbeach Much wider! Do you remember this one of the woman dashing across the street at almost exactly the same spot on Patrick Street?

• heady school said:

  If only they could bring these street lamps back, to replace the current, building site inspired monstrosities.
