Summary
[edit]DescriptionGlenelg train (smoking), King William Street terminus, Adelaide, 1899-1908 (SLSA B-4397).jpg |
English: A crowd has assembled in the roadway as a train from Glenelg arrives at its terminus in King William Street, Adelaide, about 70 metres south of its intersection with Angas Street. The photo was taken after 1899, when the South Australian Railways took over operation of the line from the Glenelg Railway Company, and before 1909, indicated by the absence of tramway poles erected that year. The train comprises a South Australian Railways 'P' class locomotive with a 2-4-0 wheel arrangement, five large end-loading passenger carriages, possibly those constructed for the Holdfast Bay Railway Company; and three smaller carriages built for the line in the late 19th century. (In 1914, the terminus was pulled back 800 metres to the South Park Lands after years of residents complaining about the smoke; services resumed to Victoria Square when the Glenelg line was re-gauged and electrified for trams in 1929.) |
