  There are now many examples in Sydney where one "semi" has "gone up". The results are rarely attractive. I never realised that in Daceyville they were designed that way from the start!

  There's that tramway again. It must have been difficult to move heavy building materials over sand.

Daceyville - suburb under construction

• Nat said:

  Presumably the hopper wagons were pushed by hand. It must have been difficult to build roads suitable for heavy carts on such sandy ground.

  Probably hauled by horses. A small petrol locomotive may have been tried out in 1920.
