Well thank you all for your input. I was aware of the installation of the second rope at the time but now I know the details. Suffice to say that anything much in the way of climbing is not acceptable in the 21st century without the correct equipment.
Climbing on the roof of a tram in Melbourne has been forbidden for at least 20 years.
The attached pic shows the breakdown crew dealing with a flipped pan at St Vincents Plaza in 2004.
A and B classes (and probably Zs) had cables attached to the roof as tie off points for safety harnesses before that but these were all removed in the refurbishment over the last few years.
Mal Rowe - still not climbing!
