Unlike the Combino D class, the Combino Plus was a very good tram from a passenger perspective. Unfortunately Siemens had sullied its reputation in Australia with its el cheapo D Class.

Should have placed an order there and then for the combino plus and also for the Bombardier Eurotram as well.--On Thursday 14 November 2024 at 08:48:19 UTC+11 Mal Rowe wrote:I was looking through some old pics yesterday to fill a request and came
across the two attached.
The first shows 'Babybino' 3532 when it was just 1 year old - it is now
20 years old.
Second pic shows the "Combino Plus" from Portugal sent to Melbourne in
an attempt by Siemens to get an order for what became the G class.
Both pics are at Malvern Depot which is still the home base for Combino
maintenance.
