	Trams in Melbourne - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Soon a Melbourne cable tramway system was running from the city to nearby suburbs, but as the city grew the technical limits of the cable tram system became apparent, and electric trams were developed for lines to more distant suburbs.
		Melbourne resisted the trend, partly because Melbourne's wide streets and geometric street pattern makes trams more practicable than in many other cities, partly because of resistance from the unions, and partly because the Chairman of the MMTB, Sir Robert Risson, successfully argued that the cost of ripping up the concrete-embedded tram tracks would be prohibitive.
		The W7 Class with its pneumatic sliding doors (later retrofitted to most W5 and W6 trams too) and softer suspension was popular with passengers but feared by crews, as the braking system - not a strong point in any W Class variant - was never really adequate.

	Tram - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Trams are distinguishable from other forms of rail-borne vehicles in that they travel wholly or partly along tracks laid down in streets, usually on track reserved for the tram system.
		The first trams, known as streetcars in north America, or horsecars, that were built in the United States, and developed from city stagecoach lines and omnibus lines that picked up and dropped off passengers on a regular route and without the need to be pre-hired.
		In Melbourne, in addition to newer types of trams in use such as the Citadis and the Combino and the middle-aged A, B and Z class trams, older W-class trams (of the dropcentre design referred to above) remain in service and are a popular tourist attraction.

	W-class tram
		W class trams were introduced to Melbourne, Australia in 1923 as a new standard design.
		In the golden era of the 1920s and 1930s, loadings were heavy, a tram conductor earned more than a schoolteacher or a policeman, and the slightest scratch or spot of dirt on the rolling stock was dealt with immediately.
		Until quite recently trams were manned by a tram conductor, whom would collect fares and issue tickets which could be utilised on other forms of transport throughout the Melbourne transport system.
