Re: [melb]Swanston don't want W-Class

Who runs the free circle trams??  They and the reatuarant cars will probably
end up as the only remnants!!.

At the end of the day these companies are in the business of running a
business..not a mobile museum...they will use the best tools they can.
...Maybe a deal can be struck to encourage the use of W's on more touristly
tram routes..and use the newbies on lines where all that is the purpose...is
the movong of people.

Its a little like selling your house and getting upset when the new owners
tear down that pergola you built and redo the kitchen and bathroom!!
What tram routes would suit a "tourist' tag.  Maybe instead of begrudging the
loss of the W's ..its time to be proactive and pre-empt their loss and
convince the new guys to use them on specific runs....maybe the Gov canbe
lobbied to mediate!!
