The pic dates from 1964, when the Y and Y1 trams were still in regular
service, although the occasion was a fan trip.

Here's my pis of 611 running in Batman Ave to Wattle Park around the
same time.

In 1965 the Y and Y1s were transferred to Glenhuntly depot where the
union quickly banned them out of concern that they could be operated one
man.

They were withdrawn after only a short time running from GH and later
used fro driver training.
