………loved the trams! Real shame they were scrapped. The Paddington Depot fire was a bit suss, though. My house was at a Section stop, which was great. Tram to my school’s gates’.
Electric trams electric busses. Such a shame. But in an alternative universe had the Brisbane Trams survived the Melbourne trams would have not. It was after the Paddington fire that that Brisbane guy went to Melbourne to stop the same thing happening there.
i think it was the wost thing brisbane ever did was to get ride of trams
Trams make so much noise, especially on turns, but at least are not producing exhaust fumes which would've been pretty dirty back in the 60's.
Beautiful and functional. I hope Clem Jones is down in hell, regretting what he did.
The old shirt-lifter himself did a lot of damage to Brisbane called progress...
didn't he push for all homes to have sewer connected to the mains instead of using the old thunderbox?
The trams were the life-blood of Brisbane.

Can anyone confirm that the scene at 0.18 is the tram terminus on Gympie Rd, near Hamilton Rd, Chermside
That is the terminus at Hamilton Road diagonally across from Chermside shopping centre
@@russellwatkins6588 Thanks. Did the Chermside shopping complex exist back then ?
Yes but not as big and not really in that view
