Tram networks have been in operation since the first horse-drawn examples were introduced in the early 1800s. They dipped in and out of fashion as other modes of transport became more fashionable, but have witnessed a resurgence in recent years.
The biggest operating tram network in the world is in Melbourne, Australia. The city boasts around 500 trams of varying designs and their reputation remains unwavering, with the free City Circle Tram and the Colonial Tramcar Restaurant proving to be ever popular with visitors to the city.
Inside the pages of Why Melbourne’s Tram Network is the Most Successful in the World, you are going to discover what makes this tram system such an enduring favourite, with descriptions, photographs, a wealth of first-hand experience and a dash of humour thrown in.
With over 150 years of life, the Melbourne tram and omnibus network has seen its fair share of history throughout the years. Now you can immerse yourself in the story of this unique form of transport and learn about the machines and the people who worked on them with intersting stories and over 215 photographs.
A ‘must-read’ book for tourists and locals alike, Why Melbourne’s Tram Network is the Most Successful in the World is the perfect guide to help you get the most from your visit to this fabulous city.

Review
"My wife and I took great pleasure in reading this book. The photographs were what made this book stand out, with photos dating from the early 1800s right up to 2018, I felt as if I was there in the moment living through the stories being told. The book was the right length and didnt go into so much detail as to bore us (as we ourselves were not that into trams) - it felt like just the right amount and level of detail. I personally enjoyed how it went in a chronological order and made reading forward interesting... A great buildup. Maybe one thing that could be improved would be to increase size of the photgraph annotations? But overall, we both would strongly recommened this great book to anyone with the slightest interest in Trams or in Melbourne in General. After reading through, we also think it would be a wonderful gift, we know what we're gifting our friends and family this Christmas :-)!" - Anonymous, Verified Purchase
