Quite right. This was Haymarket Depot,originally opened in 1878 for horse trams until 13/4 1901 then converted for electric cars and re-opened on 16/12/1901. Closed to trams 17/4/1948 and then used for buses until demolition in 1958. |

A snapshot of The South African War Memorial taken June or July 1939 marked by the amateur photographer in the album as Haymarket. Can anyone identify a United bus? |
