Re: [TramsDownUnder] Both sides of the ditch

With the idea that Dockline would be extended to downtown Auckland and mirror what they have in ChCh, I think the logic was that full drop windows would allow for picture views of the area as opposed to the intrusive bars of the original windows. I could be wrong but from memory that was the reason.

Yep! She does a good trade most sundays. 881 normally comes out in foul weather or busy event weekends whereas 466 (Briefly renumbered as Auckland 257) is the main runner.

Scrolling through some old photos I found the attached pic of Melbourne 881 in LaTrobe St. some 20 years ago.

The car, now restored (and improved by those clever Kiwis) now runs in Auckland on the repeatedly resurrected Dockline Tramway.

Mal Rowe - impressed by their work
