Gives details of the tram history and signed by Mr. L. J. Denmead, Departmental Tramways Supt., Mr. F. K. White, Branch Manager and Mr. A. N. Smith, Engineer and Manager.



Typed on copy paper with a faint watermark "EURNT BANR MADE IN AUST".



Was attached on donation to item 1850, with a pin in top left hand corner. Separated for storage. See image file for arrangement on donation.



Note: Later review by D. Macartney in early 80's? found that the SEC had miscalculated the distance travelled by 100,000 miles. The million miles occurred during service with the BTPS - written up somewhere in Fares Please!



See Fares Please! in the 1980's.
