His main work in life was with the Tramways, working up through the ranks as Labourer, Ganger supervisor and then Ballast Guard. These occupations relate to the Maintenance of the tram line bed. The tram lines were laid on sleepers over ballast as a foundation. Hard wood blocks were then laid around the rails to form the road surface itself. He was mainly associated with the West Kensington Line, which had it's tram sheds and work shop on South Dowling Street, Kensington.
