Neville Island

Trading street cars required maybe an hour of Class 1 freight line blockage, and a quick in-and-out of "snap-track"

Heavy industry and some residential.

WW II LCTs were built here. Fitted thru the locks to salt water. Then, off to Great Britain.
Wonder what they added for ballast.

The median was all grass and weeds by the time I visited Dravo Construction headquarters years later.
