Part of an article from the Bendigo Advertiser April 13, 1972 titled The End of an Era - A Man and his Mates. Mentioned in the article is the trammies signalling one another when the inspector was around, the explosion when the wire broke and hit the ground and what the trammies did about it, some of Tom Griffiths experiences, a semi-trailer taking the side out of a tram and a few of the local characters. The passenger bus helped to end the era of the trams.
