Yes. Having the Z's at Kew was not a goot use of trams because they
could not be used on the Port Melbourne end of the 109 (the front step
of a Z does not line up with the light rail platform....so they don't
want people falling in between the tram and the platform.
The same problem exists with the new stops on the 70 - Wattle Park
route near the MCG. Camberwell had to get A-Class trams to run on
route 70 because the Z's could not stop at the platforms.
