W8-Class Tram
Melbourne’s heritage W-class trams were built by the Melbourne & Metropolitan Tramways Board (MMTB) between 1923 and 1956. Classified by the National Trust of Australia, 11 of these trams remain in service on the City Circle route.
Since 2013, the W8 designation has been used for older SW6 and W7-class trams which have been rebuilt to modern safety standards. They currently wear the historic MMTB green/cream livery, with additional City Circle branding.
The mods listed under Required Items are optional, but are highly recommended and enable the following features:
