The photograph shows the interior of either VR tram 52, 53 or 54. The note on the rear of the photograph referencing tram 41 is incorrect. This photograph was taken from one end of the drop-centre looking through drop-centre to the other saloon. In the foreground the tops of the timber traverse seating can be seen along with the lined ceiling, curved light shades, strap handles for standing passengers and open sliding doors. In the saloon longitudinal upholstered seating can be seen that was a feature of these cars between 1946 and 1959. The rear of the driver's compartment door and clear glass either side of it can also be seen.Yields information about VR trams 52, 53 and 54 interior layoutBlack and white photograph with notes on the rear.In pencil on the rear "Interior of Tram No 41 [sic] Built during 1939-45 war.
