Tramway scheme eyed for universal rolling stock use
A proposal backed by the Railway Commissioners aims to convert all tramway tracks across the metropolitan area to 10 foot centre spacing. The plan would allow rolling stock to be used city wide and gradually widen tight sections from Circular Quay to Miller’s Point. Contractors begin Bellevue terminus work and extend toward Paddington, aligning with existing sections.
