- The motive power is drawn from the overhead wires". Two engineers (one in work clothes and the other in smart dress) work on a section of rail (?) observed by members from the Conference. A tram in the background can be seen with the name `Dalton'. Shots of a trackless tram car (more like a single decker bus) travels up and down a street in West Ham.
