I wish Toronto would get on board with free streetcar rides for tourists. What a great idea!
Love trams, great shot.
Good capture of the old style tram with pane windows in front of the new building with similar. Nice complementary colours too. I love Melbourne trams
Beautiful tram … colorful street life. Great photo again. They have something similar in Gothenburg, but I don’t think any Queen has been on that one. Not Elizabeth anyhow.
Fell in love with Melbourns great public transport so user friendly
Great shot. It looks almost unbelievably perfect. A work of art!
Fantastic photo. The colours are spectacular. What a great promotional pic it would make – the Melbourne tram company would be delighted!
Great shot, trams can make a city, lots here in Belgrade. And I know the Melbourne trams well from my time in Australia.
I will be visiting someday..
Ooh, I’m a coming!
