  What a fabulous, atmospheric street shot. I must admit I've never heard of a 'book factory' before - I learn something new every day!

  Wonderful street photography and captures the essence of the period beautifully! You could spend hours poring over this and admiring the details. The noise level on the street during rush hour must have been considerable with the steel tyres on the wheels and those cobbles to rattle over. "I'd like a room at the back please sir???" Is that a soldier at the rere of the tram? He looks a lot more military than transport company in that uniform, quite smart really.

  Swordscookie Staring and staring, but can't make up my mind. Uniform very military-ish, but is he wearing a small satchel-type thingy for the money (under his right hand)?? Need tram company expert, and I bet there's one out there somewhere!
