Historical information
This photo shows a tram fitted with a No. 15 truck on transporter bogies or dollies, possibly after the failure of an axle. Wooden sleepers have been placed on top of the transport dollies to enable it to be moved back to a depot or to the workshops. The tram has an advert for the State Savings Bank of Victoria Christmas Club. The logo is known as the "hamburger logo", which was used in the late 1970s to the early 1980s.
