Re: [Melb] Reprogrammed Destinations on Z1/Z2 trams

The actual name of the locality at which the line terminates is Pascoe vale
South.  Quite a few of the shops there - including the Post Office are so
labelled.  The line passes through West Coburg on the way up there, but has
passed it by the time it reaches the terminus.  This is inconsistent with the
Prahran route which takes its name from the main suburb through which it runs
rather than where it terminates.
