Trams Geelong MESCo SECV tram 28 A four wheel tram car - Single truck, drop ends, built as an open California combination ...The tram was built by Meadowbank Manufacturing Co. Sydney in 1915 for the Prahran and Malvern Tramways Trust as their No. 66. Sold to the Melbourne Electric Supply Co (MESCo) Geelong in 1927 and ran as their No. 25. After two spectacular derailments in Aphrasia St during 1950 and 1951, at almost the same location, the tram was renumbered to No. 28 to reassure the public it was safe! MESCo was taken over by the SECV in 1930. It was little used between 1951 and 1956 when the system was abandoned and the body sold to a framer in Little River. In 1983 the donor purchased the body and subsequently undertook the reconstruction to its former SECV format and livery of green and cream. It has been fitted temporarily for display purposes, with an unmotored Brill 21E truck.
