Re: [TramsDownUnder] Sydney Tramway Museum - VTF 2025

Brisbane converted the overhead on one line to be bow collector compatible, the fittings remained until the line was closed.

This happened around 1930, but likely due to the Depression the actual test operation never happened.

Someone from Brisbane could remind me which line it was, my memory fails me on that at the moment.

Three of the four Brisbane trams at Loftus existed at that time, it'd be interesting to know what cars BCC contemplated fitting with a bow.
