Tram Town

| Category: Trams Bringing together the whole tram thing that has been going on over the past couple of days on Tram Town, I have an interesting little piece of irony to report. For the duration of the Comm Games, the number 55 route is going from West Coburg to Malvern. An interesting (for some sufficiently loose definition of interesting that applies to only me) side effect of this is that we have Z2 class trams on the route for the first time in decades. Normally we have Z3's or B-classes. This lines up beautifully with the fact that the tram-a-like to be used in the opening ceremony is not even a little bit accurate in its attempt to look like a W-class. Not entirely clear? You see Z2's have two doors per side and Z3's and B's have three doors per side. The W-class-a-like to be used on Wednesday night has only two doors when it should really have three. I swear I'm really a very interesting person just a tram tragic as well. |
