Title
Last Tram Procession entering Princes Street from the Mound
Description
A crowd is gathered on the side of the street watching the procession of the last trams. The procession starts with a horse drawn trambus which is followed by electric trams. A police car and a policeman on a horse are guarding the road at the front of the procession. More policemen, including one who is mounted, can be seen in front of the crowd lining the right-hand side of the Mound. Tram tracks are visible on the cobbled road. It is dark and street lamps light the street.
