Welcome to Schony747 trams on Saturday featuring the iconic W Class Tram here in Melbourne. If you like the video, subscribe to Schony747 for more tram, train and plane videos.


The iconic W class tram shape seen running around Melbourne's streets first started running in 1936. These trams were Direct Current (DC controlled) and lasted until 2018 when the final burgundy liveried City Circle trams were finally withdrawn. The W class tram now lives on as a W8 class tram which in effect is a total rebuild of the older W class tram.


This video takes a look at the last few years of operation with the now withdrawn DC control trams. If you like trams, you will like this presentation. have a great weekend - Brenden S.
