Like the Sydney CBD and eastern suburbs light-rail tracks, Parramatta's trams mostly rely on power from overhead wiring. In the city, when trams do not have wiring from above, they are electrified from below. In Parramatta, batteries are the backup – but some trams have run out of power while using batteries around Parramatta Square and Westmead Hospital.
Totally unpredictable, just like continuous APS failure on George St...
