"CLANG, CLANG, CLANG WENT THE"-TRAMCARS
For the 68,219,656 (paying) pasangers carried last year by the Hong Kong Tramways Ltd, this is probably their first glimpse of the organisation necessary to keep those trama running.
The first car leaves the dapat each morning at 6.49, and from then until 12.58 p.m., when the last car returns to base. trame of the company are coping with the hordes of pasCON- gers which are carried dally. The longest route in the Colony is the run from Shaukiwan to Western Market, a dietance of 6,83 miles--probably ons of the cheapest rides in the world, for the first class'fare is only 20 cents.
