Photograph - W2 class trams at new St Kilda Junction, Melbourne & Metropolitan Tramways Board MMTB or VicRail or Ministry of Transport, mid 1970s

Historical information

Photograph shows W2 class cars 480 and 633 turning into and from Queens Way at the relatively new St Kilda Road tramway junction opened in 1968. The build up of dust on the concrete and the head and tail sidelights on the trams (installed in the early 1970s) suggest a date of mid 1970s. Both trams have weather blinds down and destinations read Malvern Burke Rd route 5 and City route 64. This photograph is likely an official M&MTB photograph.
