New Farm to West End tram no. 1

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  The Metropolitan Tram and Investment Company constructed a number of horse-drawn tram routes from 1885, including one to West End in 1888. The tram company also began running feeder horse ‘buses to tram lines despite the complaints of existing operators who couldn’t offer the same combined ticket with the tram. Electric trams were introduced in 1897. The West End line was amongst the first electrified. As tram routes were established and extended, many omnibus lines closed down, and homes close to tram routes became more sought after.
