Physical description
Digital image of a newspaper cutting from a Melbourne paper, dated 21/10/1963, titled late 1960's or 1970. Notes the placement of an emergency rope, with a drawing of how it works, following the Union ban after the death of a driver in a fall from the roof.
Has a sketch of tram 720 showing the rope arrangement, a man using the rope to position the trolley pole and the broken rope. Quote Clarrie O'Shea about the ban.
See Reg Items 4361 for the Chairman Robert Risson on the roof of a tram and 4353 for a photograph of an actual event.
