parked taxis on Thorndon Quay, Wellington, circa 1934


A view looking east of taxicabs parked up at the depot of Grey + Black & White taxi companies on Thorndon Quay looking east. Just visible on the left is an edge of the old Thorndon Railway Station -- this and the Lambton Station further along were replaced by the central railway station opened in 1937.

For lots more, see the books Wellington: a Capital century and Wellington Transport Memories.

Not earlier than 1935 or maybe 1936. There are several 1935 Fords there. I think the car with the white flanks may be a 1936 Studebaker.
