Photograph shoew three trams in the SEC Depot shed. Numbers on two trams are identifiable but the third is not.
The tram in the centre is Number 41. This was built in 1914 by Duncan and Fraser, Adelaide. Originally in Geelong and came to Ballarat when their trams stopped running in 1956. When Ballarat trams stopped in 1971, Tram 41 went to Horsham City Council for the Wimmera River Improvement League. The tram converted and became a smokers' lounge within Olde Horsham Restaurant. Still operating today.
Tram 11 is on the righthand side. It was built in 1915 by Meadowbank Manufacturing Company Sydney. It was first part of the Prahran and Malvern Tramways Trust fleet. It came to Ballarat in 1936 after being in Geelong. In 1971 the Ballarat trams stopped running and No.11 tram went to Daylesford and District Historical Museum.
The Ballarat Tramway Preservation Society acquired the tram in 1977. In 1995 this became the Ballarat Tramway Museum.Black and white photograph tram 41, sec depot, duncan and fraser, 1914, geelong, ballarat, 1956, horsham city council, smokers' lounge, olde horsham restaurant, tram 11, 1915, meadowbank manufacturing, sydney, prahran and malvern tramways trust, 1936, 1971, daylesford and district historical musem, 1977, ballarat tramway museum, 1995
