Today, I drove the tram on the new section of track to Whiteman Park station. PETS will be the envy of other museums around Australia.
The new track is welded 60kg on concrete sleepers and SW6 891 rides as smooth as any of its confreres on the adjacent Ellenbrook line. The new triangle is great too, no longer ‘museum standard’. The rail, sleepers and ballast were all recycled from the Bayswater area in conjunction with the building of said Ellenbrook line.
