"Hail! To the Swan-street Tram." The first Hawthorn trams were built by Duncan and Fraser, coach builders in Adelaide. They were built using Australian timber, with locally made paints and varnishes. #HTTCentenary #instatram

Many original Hawthorn trams were sold to the State Electricity Commission for service in Ballarat, Bendigo, and Geelong. Ballarat 27 was once Hawthorn No. 10. #HTTcentenary #instatram (at Ballarat Tramway Museum)
