CAMPS BAY. Cape Town. Children's Pool. 1921.

One of CT's worst rail accidents occured 300 meters from the old Esplanade Station when the 4.34 from Cape Town tore into the 4.14 from Belville with the loss of 18 lives and 80 injured.

According to an old map there were five 'stops' between Three Anchor Bay and the end of the line. This looks like the 'main'station where the present day swimming pool is. Confirmation would be appreciated.

Taken in Darling Street. The electric tram (bus). Note the "thingies" on the roof of the bus that had to be in contact with overhead wires for the bus to run.If these things came loose, the conductor (Cape slang: gartjie") had take a long pole, stored somewhere on the bus and replace these contact "thingies." Looked very dangerous at the time.
