An original Boon tram stands behind Miss Dawn Kemp, a motorwoman on the trams at Ferrymead Historic Park, who displays an assembled cardboard model of the tram. The tram and the kitset models were on display at Ferrymead yesterday. The models of the Boon tram, number 152, that entered service in 1910 and retired in 1952, are being sold by the Christchurch Transport Board in the school holidays. The tram was restored by the Tramway Historical Society. The models are available from the transport board’s information kiosk in Cathedral Square, C.T.B. ticket agents, and Ferrymead.
