Historical information

Ron Bridger was an avid collector of items related to transport, predominately Trams. These items include newspaper cuttings, pamphlets, reports, timetables, fares prices plus special items relating to events. Items from Melbourne and regional Victoria, interstate - Adelaide and Sydney, plus overseas, make up this collection.

Article about the tram that was sent to Maryborough in 1973 and now located in the bush. It is part of the Maryborough Historical and Wildlife Co-operative. The area in which the tram is located will be developed and an old eucalyptus still will be renovated. It is hoped that this will become the main attraction and sell the products produced by the still.
