traffic in George Street, Sydney, 1910s


And there will once again be vehicles on rails running along here. Extension of Sydney's Light Rail system is currently underway -- this will include a line from Circular Quay along George Street to Central Station and then elsewhere -- info

The photo is dated 1920s but it is much earlier than that. Seems NSW introduced registration plates in 1910 and from 1912 they had NSW on them. The car on the right has a very early number so I reckon 1910 or 1911 for the picture, particularly as there are so few cars in the street. The car facing us has no plate. Either they didn't have to have one on the front or the owner has not got his new plate yet.
