Brunswick tram depot

[edit]

Tram shed at Brunswick tram depot

  • ... that Brunswick tram depot, one of Melbourne tram network's eight depots, was built in 1936 for £30,030?

  • Article was 5x expanded the day before nomination, per DYKcheck. Proselength exceeds 1,500 characters. Sources have been checked for reliability and no copyvio observed; facts supported by sources (a few minor corrections made to conform with source). Vicsig is not an official site, but as the Government is citing their maps [1] I'll take it that they're reliable for these purposes. No BLP, neutrality issues. (I mean, really?) I corrected a grammatical error in the hook (build->built); hook is verified by source. (If you really want to quibble, that's the cost of the tender, but I can't find any evidence of cost overruns.) Hook's a little dry—maybe there's an alternate to be had based on the Royal visit, but I can't really think of one. Choess (talk) 03:26, 2 November 2013 (UTC)
Forgot to mention-nominator has 2 DYKs so no QPQ required. Choess (talk) 03:27, 2 November 2013 (UTC)
A picture of the royal tram.
I agree that the hook is quite dry, so propose as an alternative:
The royal tram is just visible in the picture of the depot, but this image of the royal tram could also be used (right). Liamdavies (talk) 06:04, 2 November 2013 (UTC)
