Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons C-class tramcar - note the side mounted trolley pole. I'm willing to be corrected, but this may indicate that the shot was taken in 1897 or 1898. The C-class entered service in 1896.

John Cowper This site at section 2.5.1 has the Mosman Wharf tramway extended and electrified in 1897 too - www.railpage.org.au/tram/goddmack.html . Also the wikipedia article - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trams_in_Sydney#First_period_1886_-... I will see if I can find an exact date via Trove - the date is important because it might help date the entire album, which seems to be October 1897 from this march in George St -

Too easy! Trove gives 19.2.1897, several months before this photo (?) as the "official trial trip" - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/14089640 . THis article gives amazing full details of the cars ... enough to delight any trainspotter or tramspotter!

The tramway route on an interactive 1900 map - www.nla.gov.au/apps/cdview/?pi=nla.map-rm2358-sd&rgn=... I think this photo is somewhere on Avenue Road - perhaps this bend on GoogleMapsStreetView ? - goo.gl/maps/qByhv
