A wonderful clip - and when you walk along Boar Lane today, although the "line" is the same, the mind boggles at the local and World events that have taken place since. Just for one sobering thought - many of the folks in the scene will have later taken part in WW1 and will never have returned to Leeds, or if they did their lives and those of their kinfolk will have been changed for ever. I know, 'cos I am a descendent of one of the latter.

Fantastic! It's noticable how people crossing the tramlines (either on foot, or with a horse and cart) seem totally oblivious of the oncoming tram!
