Market Street Railway Melbourne Tram Video
it would be fantastic to get one of the old Market St street cars up and running in Melbourne, some of them were very pretty
- that's fantastic. i do wonder how heavy they are...
Is this like a tourism Victoria thing? Or like, just some cool thing someone over there has done?
- The Market street tram line runs a variety of vintage cars from various different places and eras. It's a kind of "living museum" piece that complements the better-known cable cars.
  
  Oh wow! Thats a cool idea!
Such an iconic design.
I miss those trams. They might still have them in Melbourne but I'm not down in Melbourne.
- Just a small few left in the CBD, mostly different generations of newer trams.
  
  Pity. I grew up with the classic ones. Wish they kept them around, even if just for the sake of tourism.
This makes me irrationally happy
