Album - M&MTB Brown Uniforms Male and Female
Photographs show the front, side and rear views of male and female models wearing the new brown coloured tram crew uniforms. They include male jacket with gold buttons, trousers, yellow shirt and brown tie. Female brown jacket with gold buttons, skirt and roll neck scivy. These uniforms were introduced for tram crews on the new Z class trams that entered service from 1975. These trams were painted in a distinctive orange and cream livery with brown coloured internal fittings. The photographs were taken against a plain cream wall with brown skirting board and carpet, possibly in part of the uniform factory at Hawthorn Tram Depot. These uniforms marked a significant departure from the design and colour of the blue and navy blue male uniform which had been standard for over 50 years, and the dark brown female uniform standard from the early 1940s.Yields information about brown uniforms and the tramway's change from a long term previous stylecolour prints, no notes on the rear.tramways, uniform, brown uniform, z class tram, 1975, orange and cream livery, uniform factory, hawthorn tram depot, navy blue uniforms, dark brown uniforms -
