‘You’ve kicked me’: Tram Conductresses
Summary/Abstract
Auckland’s tramway was initially a public/private venture by the British Electric Traction Company in London and the Auckland Borough Councils but was taken over by the Auckland City Corporation in 1919.

Auckland’s last trams ran on 30 December 1956 (although they run regularly at MOTAT).
