Suggested tramcar safety practices for kindergartens, 1969

Suggested tramcar safety practices for kindergartens, 1969. After the closure of Brisbane tramways, some schools and kindergartens acquired tramcars as play equipment. When the Department of Transport sent letters requesting them to pick up their tramcars at the Ipswich Road depot they accompanied the letter was this suggestion of how best to install the tram at the new location. Wire mesh was to be placed at the bottom of the tramcar to prevent children crawling underneath, the handbrake needed to be secure and all glass was to be checked.
