The Peak Tramway 1897

Submitted by Klaus on Thu, 2019-12-12 23:49

This photo shows two bridges over the tram: over Macdonnell Road (1st) and above the one over Bowen Road. May Road bridge hasn't been built yet (built 1907).

Looks as if the photo was taken from the same place as this one, only from the opposite side of the dam.
