The Department of Transport produced the Melbourne " Next Generation" G class tram badge to thank the team members involved in its design and production.

These were issued as gifts to persons involved in its design and production to mark the start of series manufacturing. The card it is mounted to is typeset in the proprietary “Network Sans” font, in both Australian English and Austrian German; including a special translated version of the Next Generation Trams Project logo. This was a gesture to recognise several key Alstom staff involved in the project being loaned from Vienna.”Demonstrates a badge featuring the Melbourne G class.Metal enamel badge with pin retaining clip attached to a printed card sheet.tramways, tramcars, g class, badge, new tramcars, alstom
