G'day all, well this is a real head scratcher ! I have a bee in my bonnet
about fleet/road numbers.
The new Newcastle tram on it's way down south to Oz already has it's fleet
number 2151 proudly painted /applied on the roofline.
Wondering why they chose 2151, could have been just 001.
The Varios when they arrived had their numbers on already, but the GCLR
trams & the X05s didn't till later.
Why is this ? The new Canberra trams have their numbers applied after
arrival too.
I know it's not really that important in the general scheme of things, but
those of us pedantic enough for details get a bit mift!
Me thinks I see a trip up north in the coming months. (The wife's gonna
love that, not !)
At least I have free accommodation at my auntie's place.
Gotta go now & have a bex and a good lie down.
Tim, in Sydney.
