Yesterday a group of friends joined Hugh Waldron to celebrate his 80th
birthday.

Hugh was nicknamed "The Professor" during his extended time as a driver
and later Depot Starter at Kew depot because of his broad knowledge of
the trams and the system

Here are a couple of pics of Hugh and the special cake for the occasion.

The older view shows Hugh shepherding Sydney Tramway Museum's
"perambulating R class" number 1808 during it's time in Melbourne in 2003.
