Trade Union entry Australian Tramway & Motor Omnibus Employees Association (i) (1934 - 1950)

Summary

Formed in 1910, the Australian Tramway Employees' Association became the Australian Tramway and Motor Omnibus Employees' Association [AT&MOEA] in 1934. When this union was deregistered in 1950 its members created, within the same year, a new union of the same name. Lasting until 1993, the AT&MOEA eventually merged with the Australian Federated Union of Locomotive Enginemen, the National Union of Rail Workers and the Australian Railways Union to form the Australian Rail Tram & Bus Industry Union.
