From shadows is late in the afternoon. Date of photo taken based on the series of photos received from the ARHS as being during Oct. and Dec. 1965. On Kodak paper.
W3's were not based or attached to Essendon and would thus appear to be a visiting tram, but in service due to the presence of a run number.
