Four-masted barque ELGINSHIRE anchored in Double Bay

    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] wonderful! So rare that you get a view of the photographer. It just shows what they did to get a good photograph. Check out what Ted Hood had to do to get this view, amazing pic from State Library of New South Wales!
    View from pulley-wheels of north side creeper-crane (jibbed right out) looking into box section of south side arch, Sydney Harbour Bridge, May 1930 / Ted Hood (hanging upside down 130 metres - 420 feet - above the harbour.)

    So good to watch the jigsaw pieces come together again!

Erskine Street Tram, Double Bay

  • beachcomber australia said:
    That is not Erskine Street, Sydney. I think it is New South Head Road, Double Bay, looking SE from near Gladswood Gardens. Google street view - maps.google.com.au/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&... I am wondering if the tram was going to Erskine Street (hence the confusion). It is on the old King Street line which was extended to a new terminus in Erskine St. See 1903 map with tram routes marked - www.nla.gov.au/apps/cdview?pi=nla.map-rm1635-sd&rgn=0... . So "Erskine Street Tram, Double Bay 1949" might be a better title? 3 February 1949 was a THURSDAY ! And from the lack of shadows I'd say it is about noon. Can anyone identify the cars?!

    The car in the foreground is a an "R1" class, rated at 56 seated passengers on upholstered seats, the car in the distance also appears to be an "R1" class. Both cars were designed about 1935
