Re: Burwood (NSW) Trams

I live in Burwood and don't see tramlines down the road after the asphalt has been excavated! Where is it anyway? (I'm referring to
the stretch from Livingstone Street to Belmore Street).

Burwood (NSW) Council is currently carrying out a large
amount of work in Burwood Rd where it passes through the
shopping precinct.  As part of this a large amount of
asphalt has been removed from the road, exposing the
tramlines that once carried trams from Ashfield to Mortlake
on one of Sydney's "isolated" systems.  I understand that
the last tram ran here some 50 years ago?  I suspect that
very few passers by would even notice these rusty lines in
the pavement, let alone realise their significance.
