Perhaps it is waiting for the City bound W2 to pass. 677's east facing destination blind still reads Elsternwick Rly Stn as it was M&MTB practice on short shuttle services such as this to only show the correct destination on the front of the tram. The photograph was taken in daylight hours with local shops and motor cars in the background. Yields information about X2 class 677 and Point Ormond to Elsternwick Station shuttleBlack and white print with no notes.x2 class tram, 677, elsternwick rly stn, point ormond, w2 class, shuttle -
