Photograph - Black and White - Tram Y1 610, Early 1930s
Photo shows the first build of the upgraded Y class design classified Y1 Class 610. Four of these Trams were built in the MMTB Preston Workshops in 1930, 610 to 613. There was one solitary Y Class tram 469. They were built with the intention of evaluating one-man operation. Due to their higher cost and Union resentment, the MMTB resorted to the proven W Class tram design. All Y and Y1 classes were withdrawn from regular passenger service in 1965 and transferred to the Driver training school at Hawthorn Depot. All cars are preserved in various museums in Australia. Tram 610 is operable at the Bendigo Tram Museum.Black and White photograph of MMTB Y1 610 at South Melbourne Depot, as originally built with destination route number box and centre sash of windshield dropped. tramways, trams, tram 610, south melbourne depot, y1 class -
