It was great to see Richard Youl's New Video "Melbourne Trams 1965 to 1983
Silent Movie Digital Remake". At the 33 second mark, W5 728 appears in
Flinders Street, heading for North Balwyn; on the front of the tram is an
advertisement for "FRIST" (no, it is NOT a spelling mistake). Can anyone
remember this, or provide details/year ?

More questions: How many Z class trams were issued to traffic with Gold
fleet numbers (like 1041) ?
Does anyone have (decent) photos of Z class trams 58 to 65 as first in
service ?
Which Z1/Z2 trams were later painted Deep Yellow ?

Dean - who is now feeling nostalgic about a colour scheme he disparaged at
the time.
