Brunswick tram depot bump out after tram strike

On the 17/2/20 Yarra trams were on strike from 10am till 2pm. After the strike finished the bump out of trams started trying to get services back to normal.

how thoughtful to have a tram strike outside of peak hour, acknowledging it’s integrity to the people of melbourne

I know the strike was for a fair enough reason, but as a Bus Driver, I do not envy the inevitable abuse Karen's will level on the trammies

[@matthewmassarotti2596]

what was the reason for this strike?

[@ArtStoneUS]

Where I grew up, in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania in the United States, labor strikes in the 1960s doomed the streetcar system. People relied on the streetcars to get them to work everyday. When that trust was broken, people bought automobiles and built garages. Retailers left downtown, and employers left the city. Transit drivers were already some of the best paying jobs in the city.

What is the purpose of the people with clipboards ?

What is the purpose of the people with clipboards standing on the street ?

[@LachlanKellett]

A pretty good and no brainer Answer would be that the clipboard has which Tram to go out first, or something involved with the trams as they are the people letting the trams out
